Off Road Sunday Ride	2*

Leader: Eddie Little	Start Time: 9:30 am	Start Location: The Nelson, Charlton Road, Wantage.
Description: Please pre-book for this ride by contacting the ride leader. Off-road half day ride around local tracks, usually 15-30 miles. Knobbly tyres required. We are keen to welcome new riders of all abilities. A nice route with some great views, covering the south side of the Hendred Estate, with not too much climbing involved. Towards the end of the ride, we’ll be passing through Ardington with an optional stop for coffee at the Snowberry Stores/Cafe. Ride distance, 18.6 miles/30km.
Riders: Andrew Wornham Brian Hipwell Eddie Little James Pearson Jo Little Robin Tucker Sara Leniec Steve Leniec Riders = 8 Weather: Report: We had perfect weather conditions for this morning ride. The route gave a nice combination of trails to ride along which everyone seemed to enjoy. Our cafe stop at Ardington, formerly known as the Grocer Chef, now completely refurbished and renamed as the Snowberry Stores/Tea rooms, was an excellent choice. A nice ride with great company. Thanks everyone.
Distance: 29.06 km (18.06 mi)
