I really enjoyed this ride and it is the longest ride I have ever done, roughly 70 miles I think? A nice route through 3 counties stopping for lunch at a lovely cafe in Cricklade. I thoroughly enjoyed the day, even when fatigued and will do it again. Thanks to Des for leading the ride and the good company with the other riders. |

I got to the market square at before 9:35, having driven through 15 mins earlier. Nobody was there on either occasion. Was there a different meeting time, or did you meet and set off very, very punctually? Would have loved to join you! |

Hi Owen, I've checked with Des, and you may have got the location wrong - the riders were definitely there until 09:35 before setting off, and there will have been someone there from around 09:20 too. Get in touch via the contact tab if I can help further. |
