Report:
We had a pleasant ride of about 12 miles from Grovewe travelled towards wantage turning left at the trafic lights an d heading out through Charlton. Millie grew tried of climbing up the Hill and needed a short walk. she caught us up and managed the ride very well with a few walks on the hills. we headed out on the the track to Ardington and out round Ginge and West Hendred. i never heard any complaints from Millie during the whole ride she managed very well. we headed back down the Main road turning back into Ardington and the Millenium were we stopped for a pinic . Steve and Lorna joined us at the stones for the pinic. After the pinic we headed back to wantage and back to Brian and Edith house for an ice lollie and a few quick up grades on Millie Bike. great fun was had by all.
