All-day touring ride (80-100km / 50-65 miles), lunch and possibly tea stop en route, at a riding pace of 18-22km/h (11-14mph). Not suitable for irregular riders. Climbing almost inevitable. This is a pre-bookable ride. To book a place, text your name to the ride leader no earlier than 9:00am on the Monday before the ride. You will receive confirmation or be advised that the ride is fully booked. A reserve list will be maintained.We'll head out through Appleton and Cumnor before crossing the A40 and visiting some villages north of there, skirting round the north of Witney before back over the A40 near Curbridge and stopping at Aston Pottery for lunch. We then go through Newbridge cross the A420 and loop through Stanford before back to Grove. Aston Pottery is hopefully a safe bet for lunch as I'm not sure what, if any, restrictions will be in place by January. I'll obviously update if necessary. 55 miles, not much climbing and it's spread out throughout the ride. The ride can be made shorter if the weather is very bad. |

Riders:David JacksonEddie Little Jo Little Katherine Boyce Lisa Footner Lizzie Hardingham Sharon Bedford Stephanie Haddrell Riders = 8 Weather:   Report:An all day ride to Aston Pottery didn't sound that exciting but a combination of, mostly, good weather and routes that many people hadn't been along before turned it into a good ride. We all said we'd like to try it again in the Spring. The countryside was beautiful and we went through some lovely villages on the edge of the Cotswolds. Extra bonus for seeing a hare, a heron, red kites and field fares. Lovely food at Aston as well.Thanks to everyone for being such a great group to ride with. | ||
