Leaves start to come out on Thornham Road
BSCC Beer Garden Hypothermia, Hoxne and Brome, Suffolk - 22nd April 2021
It's the first Thursday bike rides since the easing of lockdown, and we're on a very short ride to Hoxne to sit in a tent in what feels like sub-zero temperatures for a bit, but at least we're showing real dedication to the cause. Later on, Nosher and Isobel try the same sort of thing over at The Oaksmere, where despite the sun being out it's still about -5°C with windchill thanks to a wind that's been stuck in the north for the last three weeks.

Nosher's beer, and Phil has a slurp
Paul, Phil and Gaz in the Swan beer garden
The sun sets, taking any warmth with it
We move into the marquee, which is 0.5° warmer
All the pub furniture is now outside
The empty smaller bar in the Hoxne Swan
The 'snug' room is deserted
Lights around the marquee
Paul and Gaz
Gaz stands by the fire to warm up slightly
A disused commercial building in the middle of Eye
Church Street and Buckshorn Lane
Harry and Isobel cycle up Church Street
It's normal to have gloves on to drink beer
Pippa and Apple are on the adjacent table
Harry's got a blanket to keep warm
Our pile of bikes
The Oaksmere's marquee
A grand old oak tree
Another trip to the Oaksmere, gloves on
Frazer stands on a table to do a raffle
