Report:
It was one of those lazy rides where far more time was spent eating and drinking, First at White horse Hill, where approx 45 people enjoyed mulled wine and mince pies (Many thanks to Laurent and Steve for organising), approx 20 of us continued to the True Hart at Bishopstone for lunch, and the dedicated Wantage foodies finished of by having cakes and coffee back in the museum.
