Report:
A beautiful day. My first ride in shorts this year and there were quite a few white limbs on display. A pretty straightforward ride, according to plan. A good tea stop at the Aston Pottery and a chance to meet up with 3 riders from the Oxford group. A bit of a niggling headwind home, but no great problem. As planned, exactly 35 miles, and exactly 12 mph average. The award for coolness goes to Neil, who is running the Stratford Marathon tomorrow but still decided to fit in a quick bike ride today by way of gentle preparation!
Distance:
56.33 km (35.00 mi)
