Riders:Andy CowanFrank Schroer Geoff Covey Paul Jarvis Peter Cowan Phil Stubbings Riders = 6 Weather: Report:Our hastily arranged route ended up perfect on a sunny, still, glorious evening for cycling.Started with a stiff climb up Manor Hill but then we had the luxury of a lovely fast, slightly downhill 8 mile blast on a great surface with barely a car on the road before turning up Buckham Hill which looked worse than it was, well for Geoff anyway and the rest of us chugged up for a welcome breather. Next it was the lovely little village of Boxford where we went left for another undulating 10 miles on empty roads keeping together like a mini Peleton all nicely tucked in behind Frank and Geoff, thanks lads! The finale was a windless, fast decent down Chain Hill which wrapped up a great ride before we shook hands and home for tea. Thanks for coming fellas. | ||
