|---|
Leader:Chris Walters |
Start Time:6:30 pm |
Start Location:OMH |
Description:The ride will be slightly easier tonight to help riders from the 2* group that want to try a 3* ride.We're going to head out via Lains Barn and Ardington to Steventon, across Cow Common and back either straight down the A338 if we're pooped, or a slightly longer version through Hanney and Denchworth. A few hills (nothing too bad though) to start, then flat, and the longest it will be is 22 miles. |

Riders:Andrew JohnsonChris Walters David Smith Des Higgs Jenny Williamson Phil Stubbings Philip Thornton-Evison Tim Judkins Ursula Hallam Riders = 9 Report:It was a bit of a disappointment that we had no upgraders from 2*, so we took the opportunity for a quicker ride instead. Due to the resurfacing of Lains Barn, Plan B was enacted and we went on a circuit via Fyfield, Hinton Waldrist, Pusey and Charney Bassett. It was a bit of a struggle outbound due to the headwind, and we had a much better return leg with warmed-up muscles and a slight tailwind.Although the pace was pretty good, the group stayed together well, and many thanks are due to the kind souls who took turns on the front to spread the work - a great team effort! | ||
