| Tuesday Evening 2* Ride | 2* |
|---|
Leader:Andy Pixton |
Start Time:6:30 pm |
Start Location:OMH |
Description:Weekly 1.5 hour rides at a riding pace of 18-20km/h (11-13mph). Not likely to be very hilly.This ride will be at the LOW end of the grade but still within it. This week's ride was planned to be a flat loop out to and back from Uffington. By an amazing coincidence, it turned out to be identical to last week's ride, though intended to be ridden at a slower pace. After discussion it was decided to just ride the route in the reverse direction. So, the plan is to ride out to Uffington via Denchworth, Charney Bassett, Hatford, Shellingford, and Fernham. We'll then return via Baulking, Goosey, and Denchworth. It might be further than the usual 1* ride, but it's nice and flat, and we won't tear round it at high speed. So if you've been contemplating trying a 2* ride, then come along! |

Riders:Andy BelcherAndy Pixton Carin Tranter Dave Cox Kerry Tucker Maurice Bawden Sarah Dore Val Smith Riders = 8 Weather: Report:The warmest Tuesday evening of the year so far, saw a surprisingly low turnout. And we didn't manage to entice any 1* riders to try out a 2*. This didn't prevent the eight of us who did ride last week's course, more sedately and in the opposite direction, from enjoying a pleasant steady circuit in the vale.With the wind in our faces on the way out to Uffington we held to the base 2* pace easily. On the return, with the wind at our backs, we were at times nudging the other end of the scale. Thanks to all the sociable souls who came along, and particularly to Andy B for sweeping. | ||
