Riders:Chris Carter BrennanChris Walters Henk Altmann (deceased) John Stamp John Tranter Maurice Bawden Steve Greene Riders = 7 Report:Driving over to Grove from Newbury, I'd convinced myself that there would be no-one else daft enough to be riding this evening - the rain was absolutely tropical. Slowly but surely though, riders trickled in, including two new riders, Chris and Steve - welcome to you both.The 2* and 3* rides were merged, promising to Henk and John that they'd be fine and that there were no hills. The sky was still dark and ominous, leading John T to comment that it looked like the end of the earth going on above the Ridgeway! We needn't have worried: the sun came out, and we had a very pleasant potter around the lanes, doing the 3* route at 2* (and a little bit more) pace, stopping only in West Hanney on the way back to talk about aeroplanes. Well done to Henk and John for "going the distance", and in such good style too. | ||
