Report:
At the start it looked as if we might get a few spots of rain, but fortunately it held off nicely. Matthew joined us for the first time on a 2* ride, providing the power to the Quartermain trailer bike combo.

Everyone had a good go at the 2* Rolling Championships, but the slightly greasy roads made it hard to completely let go of the brakes on Fawler Hill.

The genial pub stop was only marred by the complete and utter lack of crisps - so nuts it was. In the car park at the end of the ride, Matthew asked his dad if they could do 3* next week...

Distance:
30.60 km (19.01 mi)
