Ale to Chichester

Today we decided that now most of us are too old and slow to play football properly we would combine two of our other favourite activities...drinking and cycling. The Chichester Bike Pub Crawl was born. Here's the plan. Click to make it bigger...After breakfast in the Sussex Brewery we made an extra, unscheduled stop in the Richmond Arms at West Ashling. Geoff, Simon, Chalkie, Scholes, Jez and Me....
We made it to Chichester. The Chichester....
The first pub on the return trip was the Woolpack....
It was a long 200yd ride to the next one...The Bulls Head (famous for hosting a certain Fellows wedding reception sometime last century)....
Down the sunny lanes to the Old House at Chidham. Geoff won the forfeit jacket for being the first to finish his pint (Chalkie's photo)....
The beautiful weather and the great beer continues at the Old House...
A slight detour back along the road after we 'forgot' to stop at the Bosham Inn...
Finally back at the Sussex Brewery....it's been a long day....
But we all made it. Geoff, Simon, Scholes, Jez, Danny and Chalkie....
Great day...here's to another very soon...
