Report:It was a day of uncertain weather forecasts, so we set off with a little trepidation. In the event, we largely dodged the rain storms that were swirling around the Vale, although the southerly wind was brisk in exposed places. The Cantorist was as delightful as ever for an admittedly early cafe stop, but we earned it with some ups and downs along the Spring Line before dropping down to Goosey and heading home.Thanks to all for being a fun group! | ||

Report:A shorter west-east ride proved a good alternative and we just about beat the rain back. The forecast strong southerly wind duly arrived and I, for one, was glad we were not coming back from Bampton! | ||
