Description:Please pre-book for this ride by contacting the ride leader. Off-road ride around local tracks, usually about 10 - 15 miles. Knobbly tyres required and good lights when it gets dark (‘get you home’ lights in Spring/Autumn). We are keen to welcome new riders and can make recommendations or have spare lights to borrow if you let us know. Dark, cold and wet - we’ll ride in any two. But please let us know if you are coming so we can tell you if we decide to cancel due to bad weather or other reasons. |

Riders:Alan BerryAlex Hales Andrew Wornham Eddie Little James Pearson Sarah James Tim Waite Wendy Berry Riders = 8 Weather:  Report:A pleasant ride with another good group of eight riders. It was noticeable how quickly the daylight was fading. We started the ride in cloudy sun with an enjoyable first half of the ride taking us along Old Street and Ilsley Down. As we descended from the Ridgeway back to Betterton, we were plunged into complete darkness. Luckily everyone had good lights which made for a nice night ride back to Wantage. Thanks to everyone for a lovely evening. | ||
