Report:
Well, it was a grim evening - at least we started off in the dry! It was a good turnout across the groups though, so well done to everyone for effort!

The Fast and Furious ride became a 3* along part of the F&F course - it was just too wet and windy to try hard and stay safe. We picked Alan up along the way by Denchworth, and lost him, and Ginny turned back before Hatford. AT least we got a decent push back from the wind from Uffington, and by the time we arrived back in Grove, the weather was looking much more appealing. Sorry to Vanessa for making her jump as we passed the 10 Mile Club in Denchworth, and sorry to John that he got his shiny gold bike wet - I will try and organise better weather next time!!
