| Tuesday Evening Off-road Ride | 2* |
|---|
Leader:Robin Tucker |
Start Time:6:30 pm |
Start Location:OMH |
Description:Off-road ride around local tracks. |
||
Report:A bit damp under wheel and a bit low on turn-out as a couple of regulars were away on hols etc. However, that didn't stop us having a good time and we decided a slightly longer ride was in order.We headed out of Grove to the fringe of Wantage then Ardington. Then kept going east to Harwell science park and almost Chilton. Then up to the Ridgeway and a long haul west until we passed Baron Wantage and headed down 'Sheep Hill'. The grass had just been cut so we both ended up with a big collection wrapped round our wheels, gears, etc. and this required a stop and some pulling-off. Then back to Grove just as things started getting a little dark - and so needing a little light. | ||
Distance:33.80 km (21.00 mi) | ||
