Yet another cycle meet here. Hot and sunny. The staff are very friendly and welcoming here - shame the beer is pushing £5 a pint.  
| Brakspear (at Marston's Wychwood then at Banks's) - Gravity (was Bitter) | 3.40 |  | Surprisingly acceptable for a 3.4 | 
| Marston's - Wychwood Hobgoblin IPA (was Ruby Beer) | 4.50 |  | Nice - but a whopping £4.80 a pint. In Thanet! | 
| Sharp's - Doom Bar | 4.00 | Not Tried |  |

| Banks's - Ringwood Fortyniner | 4.90 |  | New barrel - not fully pulled through at first - second pint fine. | 
| Sharp's - Atlantic Pale Ale | 4.20 | Not Tried |  | 
| Brakspear (at Marston's Wychwood then at Banks's) - Gravity (was Bitter) | 3.40 | Not Tried |  |

Lunchtime Potterers cycle meet. We filled the front bar, very convivial and a welcome open fire after a chilly sea wall ride from Reculver.
