Riders:Alex WaltersChris Walters David Townsend Lorna Swanton Olly Swadling Sorrel Williams Steve Swanton Sue Walters Susan Holdroyd Riders = 9 Report:Thank goodness the wind had dropped by the time Saturday came around. We headed from Grove down towards Charlton Village and then took the bridleway up to Crabhill and over into Grove. A fantastic bit of track and singletrack with plenty of dried up puddles to negotiate our way round at the end of the path. A bit of road cycling then took us back to the Denchworth Road in Grove where we took the track that goes up the side of the Cemetry and on into West Hanney. We followed the route round to Denchworth and then back onto the road again for the final kilometre home for tea and ice-cream at the new cafe in the Square.All in all a lovely potter through the villages and fields and more importantly, flat and dry!
