Riders:Chris WaltersDavid Smith David Talboys Des Higgs Jon Townsin Karen Townsin Richard Pethybridge Simon Payne Ursula Hallam Riders = 9 Report:A rather grey and dull afternoon greeted this group of intrepid riders, but nothing a bit of determination and some orange tinted sunglasses couldn't solve. A fairly steady pace saw the group end up at the Aston Pottery in just the right state of preparation for a well deserved cake and refreshing beverage. The two-thirds one-third split of the ride worked well and after summiting the top of Buckland hill a slightly faster pace saw the group get back to Grove before dark. The total distance was pleasingly a fraction above 40 miles for those of us luddites who haven't moved into SI units and who have margin OCD in this area - at least we didn't have to ride around the car park to make up the distance | ||
