Riders:Adrian WestDavid Bridge David Smith David Yearley Geoff Neill John Stamp John Talbot John Tranter Michael Tayler Mila Yearley Stephen Quartermain Steve Swanton Susan Holdroyd Ursula Hallam Riders = 14 Report:Started with14 riders from Grove setting an early pace of 11mph. This soon rose to 13mph once I found that everyone in the group was reasonably comfortable at that speed. We cycled out to the Rose Revived to stopped and regroup before cycling amongst the lakes by Standlake.We had to make a small change to the route when we found that there was no proper link between Standlake and the Stanton Harcourt road but we were still able to reach Aston Pottery via a back route.After a 40 minute tea stop we made our way back to Grove via the Great Brook road and Buckland. | ||
