True crime

Thursday saw a lowish turnout – just eight Windmillers – but it meant we could all cycle together as one group. Starting once again from The Pheasant, Andrew led the team out of Great Chishill heading for Elmdon, Arkesdon and Rickling Green, where we pulled in at The Cricketer’s Arms for coffee.

The return leg took us through The Pelhams, the picturesque Hertfordshire villages that feature in real life murder mysteries; notably the 2004 shooting in Furneux Pelham and the 1970 kidnapping-cum-murder in Stocking Pelham. Not so much The Pelhams as The Felons then, though Brent Pelham seems the exception, having avoided any gruesome national headlines, at least for now.

Back at the pub, we were pleased to see Ken and Paul joining us for lunch. Maurice would have come too, but for the fulsome attention he is getting at Addenbrookes. We wish him well and look forward to seeing him back in the peloton soon.

For the record our riders were: Alan, Andrew, Brian, Deborah, Howard, MartinB, Rod and Roger. Keep safe in the Pelhams, Roger.

Our thanks go to Andrew for planning the outing (we were impressed this week’s GPX actually matched the route).

And here is this weeks’ caption competition . . .

What on earth are they up to?
