Today I took my first bike ride with The Central London Cycling Touring Club which is a group that gets together on weekends taking a train out past the urban sprawl to ride in the English countryside. Today we meet in Pluckley (the most haunted village in England) and rode out to a little miller’s village called Stelling Minnis riding through the hills of Kent. We only did ~45 miles, but the "hills" have my legs aching.

Shame this ride wasn’t next weekend as it would have coincided with the Pluckley Hog Festival. Guess we can’t have everything.

Observation: Sheep smell worse than cows.
