Report:
A beautiful day for a ride sunshine light wind and great company!
We got a wiggle on as Ernie had to be back so stormed to Blakes in an hour. The coffee was amazing, Marmalade and chocolate bun to die for, and the turkey burgers monstrous, which may account for the plethora of cyclists in the garden. Lovely to see Paul and John too!
As we left Clanfield, we maintained a good pace and were delighted that all made it up the hill into Faringdon without any trouble, and paused at the top for a brief history lesson from Des! The return home was uneventful, mostly with the wind and a pleasure, although the drains on the left of the A417 are a hazard to be avoided.
In all a very enjoyable morning Thanks for the company!
