Description:
Long, hilly, quick - or any combination! - 35-45km

On the proviso that the weather stays dry we'll be going through Wantage to the Letcombes, up Court Hill, down to Woolley, across to Brightwalton and Catmore, finally coming back into Wantage down Chain Hill. If the weather isn't looking so friendly then we will be doing an alternative, flatter route.

Riders = 8
Report:
Slightly into the wind to start off with and then the slog up Court Hill. Whizzed down to Woolley and then up my least favourite hill in the entire world,whizz back down to the main road and a special surprise in store - another hill, which took us to Brightwalton. Back along the main road to Chain Hill and the final reward for all that climbing, down Chain Hill to Wantage where most of the group returned to Grove whilst some of us peeled off home.
A really quick ride this evening, considering all those hills....rock on!

Distance:
32.19 km (20.00 mi)
