Didn't have a riding plan in mind just figured I would ride if I fancied it, as Thursday's forcast says raining all day I decided to follow my nose for 20 odd miles. On top of that the ice is set to return at the weekend so today was the last chance to get a ride in for at least a week and a bit.
Wasn't supposed to stop but as I neared Umberslade Farm Park I had thoughts of venturing down the lovely long tree-lined road to the Farm Park Cafe and buy just a diddy cappuccino. Upon approach I thought to myself 'nah I won't bother' as supposed to be cutting calories... but then subliminally I rode down there anyway (Ha! brain wins!)
At the cafe the counter was deserted, I ended up waiting for about 5 minutes before a server appeared... as I waited I found myself eyeing up around 6 different cakes in the cabinet, they looked so nice I couldn't resist trying a slice of the Belgian chocolate cake. Turned out to be delish! 😋
Quite a few parents with toddlers inside the cafe "Cows go Moooo!" etc...
Strava reveals it had been 4 years since I last visited the place - I had never been impressed much with the cake previously so quite a surprise to find today's cake a 10/10.
Enjoyable ride with 25 miles covered, maybe I shall frequent in another 4 years time :)
Today's Fuel:
Jam on brown toast x 2 (pre ride brekkie)
1 x slice of Belgian choccy cake (10/10)
1 x small cappuccino
