Sunday 10/10/10!! Melton Mowbray, a pie, and back!


W
A trip to YE OLDE PORK PIE SHOPPE!
Drove over to Michiel's at Gaulby for an 0830 start. We headed west throught Tugby, then North pausing at the 'Stilton Cheese Inn' at Somerby. We were heading into a chilly North wind under grey skies but we finished in warm sunshine.
Once at Melton we headed into the precinct to visit the olde pie shoppe! Closed on Sunday Michiel came prepared & we devoured a delicious pie (bought the day before!)
The route home took us through Great Dalby, Burrough-on-the-Hill, and Houghton-on-the-Hill. Yes lots of hills and some fantastic countryside to boot - a nice ride
We have plans to circumnavigate Leicester & Kettering before winter sets in....
47.76m 3h41m @ 13mph 3489ft climb 2010 total - 1260m
