Cracking day out on the South Island Randonnée although numbers were way down on last year's event. On the plus side I didn't miss the May Bank Holiday traffic queues where the route crosses the approaches to Ryde. Gentle SE wind meant the run along the Military Road was the fastest ever. #IsleOfWight #cycling #BikeToot

The town of #Cowes on the north side of the #IsleOfWight functions as the main #port for passengers from the #Mainland.
