Lost pannier, Huntingdon area

Post by John Gray »

On Monday 29 July I was on my way from Cambridge to Peterborough as part of a week long tour of the Fens. Heading north out of Huntingdon on Sapley Road, in the process of crossing the A141, I stumbled and fell, got up quickly and continued. Some miles later I realised the left hand pannier was missing. I retraced my steps, but could not find it. I tried reporting it to Huntingdonshire Police, but they told me that they no longer accept lost property.
If anyone is in the area and comes across it, please let me know!

CTC Cambridge folk in the area have been asked.

By co-incidence their ride this Thursday goes to Old Hurst so if you can share your onward route from the A141 crossing near Sapley Road eyes can be kept peeled when on same roads. Did you continue up to King's Ripton / Upwood from there?

Thank you very much! Yes, I continued through Kings Ripton and Upwood. I then turned left around Ramsey St Marys to go through Great Fen. I took a detour to see the Holme Fen posts, and it was only then that I realised my pannier was missing. I retraced my steps to the A141 crossing, which is where I assume the pannier became detached. I suppose it may have happened before then. I had a rucksack across the top of the panniers, which obscured my view of them.
