Weather:
sunny intervalswindy (fine)
Report:
A strong group of nine riders on a blustery evening. We had a lovely tailwind to Lain's Barn and Ardington looked resplendent in the sunshine.

It didn't take us long to get to the foot of Hagbourne Hill, nicely resurfaced with smooth tarmac but still a steep little incline.

After Rowstock and Steventon we had a tough headwind along the Hanney Road and a loop via Lyford and Denchworth saw us back at Grove at 8.30pm, the first group back!

Distance:
47.80 km (29.70 mi)
