Riders:Adrian WestChris Walters Ginny Henderson Matt Chambers Riders = 4 Report:Five set off from Grove, making good pace for the elevenses rendezvous with the others. After a bacon butty, Chris, Steve, Ginny, Tony, Adrian, James and Rosey, Richard Morris, and Matt Chambers cracked on along some "interesting" lanes up to Chippy, where a pleasant lunch was had at the Old Mill - Ginny had peeled off at Woodstock to make her ride a shorter one.After lunch, Chris, Adrian and Matt, headed back via Minster Lovell and Bampton (quick ice-cream stop). A great day's riding, pretty tiring, but in glorious weather and great company. Sleeping well is definitely on the agenda for tonight! | ||

Was a brilliant ride and I was totally worn out by the end. Well worth doing again :) |
