A mere handful of Devon Section riders showed up at Strawberry Fields Farm Shop, Lifton, to join Dave and Di Beacham's West Devon Borders Run. All I can say is that you missed a perfect day out! We were heavily outnumbered by the Cornish Section fyrd (Google that). So much so that Dave ordered a double drop-off (two marker bikes at each junction), which worked very efficiently, giving everyone a turn at the front of our long line. As always, Dave and Di chose a varied route along the tiniest lanes and faster roads with views ranging from hot, dusty farmyards to impressive vistas of Dartmoor and beyond. A leisurely lunch was taken at The Castle Inn, Lydford, giving everyone chance to cool down and rehydrate before the Cornwall crew meandered their way back across the border and I peeled off north to head home on quiet roads. Thanks to Dave and Di for such a well prepared and executed run.
