| Tuesday Evening Off-road Ride | 2* |
|---|
Leader:Robin Tucker |
Start Time:6:30 pm |
Start Location:OMH |
Description:Off-road ride around local tracks, usually about 15 miles. Knobbly tyres and good lights required. We are keen to welcome new riders and have spare lights available to borrow if you let me know.Dark, cold and wet - we'll ride in any 2. But please let me know if you are coming so I can tell you if I decide to cancel due to really bad weather. |

Report:Lovely weather and long evening, so we went a little further than usual.Up to the Ridgeway the normal way, then right up by Baron Wantage, over the road and the next byway on the left. Then we recrossed the road and did the diagonal that was horrendously muddy when we last rode it in April (I think). It wasn't muddy. But it was stuffed full of nettles for about half a mile! Ouch. We then headed into Farnborough, and headed Southeast, almost down to Catmore before turning north and down Hernehill Down. Then up 'Ice Valley' and back home. Great trails, great ride, great deal of nettle-rash! | ||
Distance:33.80 km (21.00 mi) | ||
