Tuesday Evening 4* Ride	4*

Leader: John Talbot	Start Time: 6:30 pm	Start Location: OMH
Description: Weekly 1.5-2 hours ride at a riding pace of 25-29km/h (16-18mph). May be hilly. This ride will be at the LOW end of the grade but still within it. Another attempt to run the 4* ride that was cancelled in May. Relatively flat. I've extended it slightly given the extra daylight. Hoping for and not this time! Optional stop at The Fox in Denchworth at the end of the ride.
Riders: Alan Gale Andy Cowan Andy Pixton Chris Walters David Smith Jason Jones John Talbot Jonty Ward Karen Froud Ken Pelton Paul Jarvis Phil Ward Riders = 12 Weather: Report: A cool but bright evening to welcome 12 riders on to my first 4* lead of the season. This was an easier route I'd planned for May which got rained off. There were no dramas as the group kept together well on the wide and easy roads with few junctions to worry about. We were back at The Fox for in plenty of time for those stopping. Thanks to Paul for sweeping and for everyone for a good ride.
Distance: 51.30 km (31.88 mi)
