Description:It was great to see so many of you on our first Virtual Pub Night last week. And while we can't meet and ride as a group for the time being, we've decided to hold these weekly. It's a chance for a chat and to share our news from the comfort of our own homes. Please BYOB so we can pretend we are all in the pub together!An invitation to the meeting will be sent out by email to all members subscribing to our newsletter. If you don't receive this and would like to join us, please drop me a line before 6pm on Tuesday. Looking forward to seeing as many of you as can make it. With thanks to Jan Mc for hosting. |

A broad range of topics this week  : the kindness of cycling strangers (when you get a puncture at the top of Spring Hill, 20 miles from home and discover your pump has broken  ); starting a new job on-line in lockdown; progress on the new cycle route between Wantage and Harwell (the bridge of doom is gone); smart turbos and virtual racing  ; the North Denchworth lions; and the new Cycle Treasure Hunt was launched. All this plus zoom-bombing by Steph's cat  . Thanks to Jan for hosting. Hope to see many of you again, same time next week  . | ||
