Description:Off-road ride around local tracks, usually about 15 miles. Knobbly tyres and good lights required. We are keen to welcome new riders and have spare lights available to borrow if you let me know.Dark, cold and wet - we'll ride in any 2. But please let me know if you are coming so I can tell you if I decide to cancel due to really bad weather. |

Riders:David BrownDavid Yearley Robin Tucker Riders = 3 Weather:![]() Report:We managed to nab a gap in the rain last night - it arrived bank on the forecast at 9pm, but we had got back by 8:30ish. I confess to feeling more sluggish than usual, but the threat of imminent precipitation kept me going!We went out along Crab Hill, which was passable but sticky and involved a few foot dabs to stay upright. Then up Goddards Brook and on to the Ridgeway. For a change we went down West Ginge Down (opposite Betterton) and after having picked up speed had a slightly nervous moment seeing another mountain biker coming up towards us and trying to figure out whether he/she was on the left or right. Then it was a short bit of road and up th track to Scutchhamer's knob. Along the Ridgeway (against the wind now) and down at Betterton. Then Lockinge, Lains Barn and back to Grove mostly by road. Not really wet or dry, or hot or cold. But certainly another despot in the bank of winter fitness retention. | ||
