Report:
12 riders completed the century (8 on the left plus Trevor and Paul from Witney group and Steve and Janet from City). Well done to everyone and particularly to our 7 new "Centurions". All went to plan, with a few unexpected extras thrown in... Full report to come. Thanks everyone for making it a great day.
