Tuesday Evening 3* Ride	3*

Leader: Andy Pixton	Start Time: 6:30 pm	Start Location: OMH
Description: Weekly 1.5 - 2 hours at a riding pace of 20-24km/h (13-15mph). May be hilly. Optional stop at The Fox in Denchworth at the end of the ride.
Riders: Andy Pixton Chris Walters David Smith David Talboys Jane John Jon Townsin Joy Arthur Karen Townsin Katherine Boyce Mike Cooke Nicole Pethybridge Roger Turnbull Yvonne Bird Riders = 13 Weather: Report: A very grey, threatening sky, finally let loose with squalls and sleet as we passed through Denchworth. One or two confessed afterwards that they had considered turning back at that point. Thankfully we all persevered, and apart from the odd occasion when we turned into the wind, we managed to dodge the worst of what we could spy in patches all around us. We even managed some warm sunshine for a time. A compact group, with no-one complaining about the pace, we all arrived back in Denchworth before dark. Some came to The Fox for food and refreshments while others returned directly to Grove. Thanks to all who turned out, and particularly to Katherine who swapped ends with me, for a change .
