| Winter Evening Ride | 3* |
|---|
Leader:Chris Walters |
Start Time:7:00 pm |
Start Location:OMH |
Description:UPDATE - ride definitely on, there may be very light rain towards the end of the ride, but it looks like we'll get away with it!Quick but flat 3* ride in the Vale for 1.5 to 2 hours covering around 40km each week. The ride usually maintains a solid 3* pace on the flat; we do not tackle hills. Will not run if icy, very windy or wet - check the website for cancellation by mid-day on the day of the ride. Weather permitting, we'll be heading out to Uffington, Longcot and Pusey tonight - along the infamous "Tranter's Lane" Good lights capable of lasting the full ride are essential, as is suitable clothing to deal with the cold. |

Riders:Chris WaltersDavid Smith David Talboys Des Higgs John Tranter Peter Cowan Simon Payne Ursula Hallam Riders = 8 Weather:  Report:Amazingly, eight riders turned out. It was a bit nippy but not too bad. Tranter's Lane was safely negotiated, but the stretch from the railway bridge was very slippery, with a number of back wheels making their break for freedom. Nobody came off though.On cue, the rain started around Charney Bassett, albeit quite light. | ||
