| Tuesday Evening 4* Ride | 4* |
|---|
Leader:Andy Cowan |
Start Time:6:30 pm |
Start Location:OMH |
Description:Weekly 1.5 - 2 hours ride at a riding pace in excess of 24km/h (15mph). May be hilly.This ride will be at the LOW end of the grade but still within it. A good opportunity to join the 4* group for a fairly flat ride to Oxford. Out fairly fast, E Hanney Frilford, right to Clophill, Wooton, down Cumnor Hill, into the centre and loop around back the way we came to Frilford,where pending time, straight to Grove but hopefully we will have time for the scenic route through W Hanney and good ol` Denchworth. Regular riders,Frank!,I m sure you`ve noticed this is a lower end ride. Our aim will be to get in a good pace but we will ride thinking of the group. For any 3* riders who are undecided, if we got Paul Jarvis round last week,, we can get you round! |

Riders:Andy CowanDavid Smith Jonty Ward Karen Froud Ken Pelton Nick Stokell Phil Ward Riders = 7 Weather: Report:A good one on a beautiful evening tonight apart from my misjudgement as to how busy Oxford would be; well I have only worked there for 20 years!Apart from that a low end flat ride proved a good idea with our first lady rider this year and our first father and son team with young Jonty doing a great job, proving there is no reason to stop him or Karen becoming regulars. I am sure he did his old man proud, well done. We concentrated on our communications as a group well to make sure everyone was happy with the pace which seemed nice and relaxed into the city, where we just hit traffic. Nice as it can be to get the city buzz it did bring progress to a bit of a halt but we were soon on our way up Cumnor and pushing it to the Harley turn. The pace stayed nice and steady until adios to Phil and Jonty in Hanney leaving the rest of us to push home through Denchworth. I did have my garmin off through Oxford but 33 miles at 18.9 seemed just right. Thanks everyone for contributing to a stress free happy ride . | ||
