Report:We have managed to fulfil the requisite number of David's for this ride. 100% turnout!We had a fast and furious ride tonight to get to The Fox at Denchworth before the road riders. From Old Mill Hall we headed along the canal to Challow, and then up the hill to pick up the track towards Childrey. We headed up the hill where the track meets Silver Lane, to the B4507, and then a quick left and right to pick up the trail that heads towards Letcombe Bassett. From there we had a fairly straightforward run into Letcombe Bassett and then up Gramps Hill to pick up The Ridgeway, before heading westwards to the Wescot Chalky Drop, via Sparsholt Firs, and then onto Denchworth via the normal roads. All in all it was a fast-paced, non-stop off road ride which was rewarded with a pint and a burger at The Fox. | ||
