Big Night Out
1st June 2008

Direct from the Ministry of Stupid Ideas, a plan was hatched to depart from the Happy Cheese at Ashurst one evening, ride to the ferry at Lymington, do the Seven Hills end-to-end of the Isle of Wight overnight, get a kebab, and then ride back in time for the first ferry in the morning. So we did.
