Just 3 at the meeting point this morning, Paul, Anthony and your truly. Paul had called the route and it was to be out towards St Albans. So, we duly head in the opposite direction and headed north towards Luton. Apologies to any of the other lads who thought they'd meet us on the St Albans Road!
I've not done this route, its down the 1081 and then up towards Pepperstock, around the lanes and back via Kinsbourne Green and Roundwood.
Anthony hadn't been out for a good 6 weeks so I was more than happy to keep the pace at around 9mins, but Paul is quicker and likes it to be nearer 8. Anyway we moved along chatting away and catching up on the various illnesses we'd all had.
By the time we got back to Harpenden it had been a 10mile loop. We headed up Station Road and Anthony cut out for home. I needed more miles after Paul went home and so I headed over to Cherry Tree Lane. I took the path up through the fields, onto Pipers Lane. I went down the hill and took Cross Lane up through the golf course and onto the 1081. From there is it was time to get back home. 2 hours 20 mins and dead on 16miles covered.
