Report:The rain stopped just as we left Old Mill Hall and never returned (the sun always shines on the righteous?) We had a very good social ride with me leading from the middle and the front talking to everyone! The scenery at this time of the year is outstanding so we all took it in as we rode. We finally arrived at Faringdon Market Square where the Coffee House is and we all enjoyed our coffee and cake sat by the Portwell. I told everyone the basic changes in Faringdon over the last 70 years (I am full of worthless info!) We rode back at a very steady pace with only one incident when David's chain came off - no problem! Thank you very much one and all and I hope you enjoyed it as much as I did. | ||
