Norfolk and Norwich Group of Advanced Motorists
Registered Charity Number 1051282. Affiliated to the Institute of Advanced Motorists Ltd.
Twelve smiling riders turned up at our regular West Lynn Service Station meet point. This was a superb turnout indeed for the Easter Sunday ride out. A fairly mild start with little overcast that was short lived.
We split into two groups - headed off East onto A47 through part of Gayton Road, Winch Road, a spirited pace built, meandering onto those fun B roads 1145, 1146, cutting through towards Tittleshall, Colkirk, Stibbard and Guist up onto the B1110 for Melton Constable, B1354 for Saxthorpe, Norwich, linking eventually onto the A140 bringing us to our destination - Artisan Cafe, Erpingham. A rather quaint historic carstone building.
Not only did we gain fantastic momentum, we had glorious sunshine and surprisingly clear roads. This route had us leaning and swerving, filling our senses on the open road with hardly any traffic whatsoever. Definitely lovely biking roads!
The cafe staff were efficient, polite and accommodating, serving very good fresh coffee and need I say, delightful cakes and savouries for our usual suspects!
There is an on-site art and craft section and gardens, not to mention a few resident Peafowl/Peacocks amused by all.
A big thanks goes out to Mel for putting the route together, leading one of the groups and also to Bob Barrett for leading the second group.
Dare I say, nobody got lost! All in all a truly happy Easter occasion.
If you’d like to join us - just get in touch. We are a warm and engaging bunch.
Until the next one… Elke
