Sunday Shortie 3*
Leader:
Katherine Boyce
Start Time:
9:15 am
Start Location:
Beacon
Description:
Please pre-book for this ride by contacting the ride leader. A 2 Hour ride (24-40km / 15-25 miles), riding pace of 20-24km/h (13-15mph). Not suitable for irregular riders. Climbing likely.

Okay so there’s a lot of rain due before the weekend and who knows if we’ll get to ride but here is Plan A - off to Shrivenham for a coffee and a longer than normal Sunday Shortie - trying to make up for all our missed rides! If it becomes clear this is not feasible due to floods still around on Saturday I will change to Plan B. Make sure I know that your coming so I can keep you update :)

Weather:
windy
Report:
Great to get out despite so much rain in the run up to the ride. Helped that whilst cold, the threatened frost hadn’t materialised. Jo had to call for a lift when a puncture wasn’t able to be sorted road-side. Shame it hadn’t been a few miles further on at the excellent Hinton Farm Shop cafe.

A niggly head wind on the hilly return but all-in-all a great couple of hours riding and company :)
Distance:
49.16 km (30.55 mi)
