Report:A dry evening right at the end of October?!Well, not dry in every sense as we did end up at the pub. Tonight marked the return of Richard A, who seems to enjoy riding more as the conditions get worse. We went along the canal and up through Letcombe Reigs and Gramps Hill. At the A338 we turned left to the Seven Barrows descent, which was fast but very rutty - a tricky balance. Then climb back up to the RIdgeway and down at Sparsholt Field - another track that is riding fast, but washed away by the summer rains in places. At the Fox, John bought not only a round of beers, but a portion of chips which tuners out to be enormous and enough for us all to refuel. Thanks John! | ||
