Riders:David BrownDavid Talboys David Yearley Nick Stokell Richard Anstis Robin Tucker Riders = 6 Weather:Report:As the nights get colder, we seem to have more people - 6 tonight! Including 3 Dave's!Maybe it was the lure of the pub. We set off just after 7 along the canal. With the later start, and the pub kitchen closing at 9 we wanted to make good time. Unfortunately Dave T's chain snagged and it took us a while to get the bent link off and a split link on. Once done, we decided to use the road up to the Ridgeway. We went to Childrey and took the B4001, but in retrospect it would not have been much longer to ride out to Sparsholt and take the little road up. Working our way to Sparsholt Field, we had our usual pub-night blast down this descent. The blocking tree is now removed. Arriving at the pub, we found Chris W and Richard P settled in by the fire with their beers. We joined them! | ||
Distance:25.75 km (16.00 mi) | ||
