Report:
We should have changed the ride to Not the Windrush Winter Warm-up! Yet again the miserable cold, wet weather interfered with cycling plans and as a result the hardy 3 undertook a cold, wet, local ride with potential to extend or contract as the weather dictated. We did the basic route, stopped at the farm cafe in Shrivenham for excellent coffee and in my case brownies before returning to Wantage in steadily improving weather conditions. However 5 minutes after arriving home the heavens opened. Plan B was definitely the right plan! No matter the change of plans and cold, we were all glad to get out on our bikes :)
Distance:
56.85 km (35.32 mi)
