Terry, Ray, Patrick, Laurie and John decided to take advantage of the coffee shop at Barrow Boating before it closes at the end of the summer season. The riders proceeded via Mucklin Wood to Beaumanor, then through Quorn and across the Slabs to Barrow, following the canal towpath to Barrow Boating. Here the riders had to face up to a minor disaster as they had sold out of cake the previous day. Despite the lack of essential nourishment, the riders managed to return to Loughborough via Cotes and Meadow Lane.
