Riders:Angie FisherCarin Tranter John Tranter Patrick O'Leary Sarah Macaulay Susan Holdroyd Riders = 6 Weather: Report:After a slightly drizzly start, the weather improved and we enjoyed the nicest day we have had for quite a long time - even a hint of sunshine!There was a fair bit of surface water about, but nothing too serious. It was a really nice group with lots of chat and catching up as a few had not ridden for quite a while. Great service and delicious food and drinks at Stanford cafe. Thanks to all! | ||

Report:A nice steady sensible ride for the time of year. SITV coffee house looked after us well when we decided to take advantage of the soft furnishings - it wasn't long before the 1* group arrived as well. There were no problems with men or machines so a very easy ride to lead. It was good to see Terry back for his first ride of 2024 - he seemed OK after a long time off the bike.A very good ride, with good company. Thank you all! | ||
