Devil's Dyke Outing, 01 Feb 2009



The Devil's Dyke Outing,
By Emma Hoad


The Team: Mel, Emma, Leah, Lisette

A very windy and cold start at the Jack and Jill Windmills on Sunday Morning, much the same as the previous week - but less rain and more snow (and I did not forget my boots)!!


A 10mile hike across to Devils Dyke with a few wrong turns (which included up some killer steps and down a steep hill on our bums!) and along the way meeting some very mad cyclists and runners along with another 3peaks girls team!!

Lots of wind, lots of mud (that I did take a bit of slip in!!), lots of horses / riders / dogs and HUGE cows, and towards the end lots of snow and aching legs and a very weird stone shaped like a finger that Mel stumbled across.

All in all was a pretty good walk which tested us all on our fitness levels!!...



Plus it was finished off with Chips and Soup in the pub on Andre!!!.... Chips never tasted so good!!

Emma.


The day ended at the local pub ( The Jack and Jill Inn, of course), with a warm meal and some refreshing drinks.
