| Winter Evening Ride | 2* |
|---|
Leader:David Smith |
Start Time:7:00 pm |
Start Location:OMH |
Description:UPDATE 12:45 27/11/2012 - The ride is on, everyone welcome but the decision to ride is yours.A shorter route of around 33km tonight owing to the conditions and this being my first evening lead! We will not ride as fast as 3* pace, nor will we tackle hills. Please check the website after 13:00 on the day of the ride in case of cancellation. Good lights capable of lasting the full ride are essential, as is suitable clothing to deal with the cold. Please also consider riding with mudguards for the comfort of other riders, as roads are often damp on winter evenings. |

Riders:Andy CowanAndy Pixton David Smith Frank Schroer Katherine Boyce Richard Preece Steve Burr Ursula Hallam Riders = 8 Weather:   Report:It was an encouraging turnout on a cold, windy evening. We had to stop to adjust a rubbing brake and later on to change modes on a light with a switch that was far too clever for its owner! Otherwise a very enjoyable ride on quiet roads that were remarkably dry considering the recent weather. Thanks to Andy for sweeping and everyone else for coming along. | ||
