Xmas Bike Ride

We had our Christmas Bike Ride with the Thursday MTB group today.  It was a nice day if a tad windy.  Here we are on the Itchenor Ferry.  Paul, Ro, Simon and me.
My dad went on this ferry 50 years ago when it was a rowing boat! Bit fancier now.
Lunch in the Crown and Anchor at Dell Quay.  Cheers. 
Round the beach at Bosham.
Anchor Bleu in Bosham :-)
Great ride...Merry Christmas bikers :-)
