July 7th – A trip to deliver a vehicle to Telford from work presented the opportunity to ride from the new town into Ironbridge Gorge, then after breakfast at a lovely cafe, up through Coalbrokedale to the Wrekin. After riding and climbing to the top, a ride down, and then around the town in the surrounding countryside, through Wrockwardine, The Dukes Drive, Kynnersley Moor and Lilleshall. The ride onwards took me through Wheaton Aston, Pekridge and Bridgtown to home.

An excellent long ride with some challenging climbs (not least the Wrekin itself) and some great countryside and weather. 

What summer is all about!
