Bristol Nomads Windsurfing Club

Turned out to be a cracking ride - thanks Adrian for performing all navigational duties and leading us to a perfect pub just when we were all about to perish from dehydration. 36miles round the top of the ridgeway, stopping for ice-creams, water and beer as appropriate - just under seven hours from ...
