Riders:Adrian WestAndy Belcher Andy Cowan David Gore Des Higgs Katherine Boyce Louise Gore Simon Payne Stan Cowan Steve Boreham Steve Joyce Riders = 11 Weather: Report:A very pleasant evening for a ride. 3 new riders, welcome to Simon, David and Louise. We ambled over to Wantage via Ardington and the Lockinge path. Nobody was upset that i'd forgotten to mention the slight off-road element in my briefing!Despite the horrendous road surface on the Ickleton Road in Wantage, we all made it through. A pause at Letcombe Bassett for a few technical hitches to be sorted and then up the last big hill before descending into Childrey. We said goodbye to Steve and everyone else was very polite at me forgetting that we were meant to go to Sparsholt rather than Childrey  . An uneventful return to Grove via Goosey and the road resurfacing between Denchworth and Grove. Thanks to Des for doing a sterling job as sweeper. | ||
