| Off-road Ride | 2* |
|---|
Leader:Robin Tucker |
Start Time:6:30 pm |
Start Location:OMH |
Description:Off-roading in the dark is an experience you must try for your cycling life to be complete! Knobbly tyres and lights required.About 15 miles up to the Ridgeway and back down again. Sometimes, by agreement on the night, we might go a bit further. Bright lights are required for off-road riding in the dark, and a rear light for getting home. I have 2 spare ones that I can lend so you can see if you like it before buying your own. Contact me so I know to bring them. Dark, cold and wet – we'll ride in any 2. But please let me know if you are coming so I can tell you if I decide to cancel due to really bad weather. |

Report:Up to the Ridgeway by Goddards Brook and "Sheep Hill" then West for a change, coming down Sparsholt Field (nice descent on farm track) and back to Grove through the villages and canal. (By it not in it!) | ||
Distance:30.58 km (19.00 mi) | ||
