Report:
Even as late as 5pm, the weather forecast looked hopeful. By 6.29, it was clear that it was going to be yet another wet ride, so we set off anyway, down the A338 and up to Abingdon via Steventon. The worst of the rain was just before Abingdon, and it rather obligingly stopped raining around the Marcham area, with an uneventful return.

Well done everyone for riding at a decent pace and putting up with the weather. It truly was awful, but it's amazing how a smile and a chuckle can overcome the worst of what gets thrown at us.

Distance:
36.80 km (22.87 mi)
