Report:After another hot day, this turned out to be a lovely evening ride. Steve felt a little challenged against 3 e-bikes, but we regrouped after each hill and took plenty of hydration stops.By the time we finished, the temperature was delightful. There was a slight hiatus at the start, where I had downloaded Thursday's route.......soon corrected, I shall call it a senior moment! | ||

Report:This was a tough ride to be tackling on a hot evening but there was a refreshing breeze at times and the lovely tree lined backroads gave us shade. We all enjoyed the glorious route and coped well with the climbing. | ||
