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. ***** UPDATE -10/05/2016 12:18 *****Planning to skip the ascent of White Horse Hill, as visibility is poor today, and the descent will be made more tricky with the wet roads. The rest of the ride should be fine. ********************************** A nice hilly one! If you're looking for a recovery ride after the Blowing Stone Audax, or a beautiful view from the top of White Horse Hill, then look no further. We'll take a standard route out to Denchworth and Goosey, then over the A415 towards Baulking, taking the first left up to Kingston Lisle. We'll continue along the spring line road, left, up past Dragon Mound, to the top of White Horse Hill, then pause to enjoy. Having descended the other side, we'll continue down into Woolstone, through Uffington, and back round to Kingston Lisle via Fawler Hill. It's down hill all the way home from here! Through Sparsholt, skirting Childrey, then back to Denchworth along Circourt Road, and home to Grove. |

Riders:Andy PixtonMike Cooke Riders = 2 Weather:   Report:Not the turnout we've been seeing in recent weeks. Nevertheless, Mike and I enjoyed a pleasant chatty ride, through grey drizzle, punctuated occasionally with heavy rain. White Horse Hill was buried in cloud, as we continued along the spring line road, ignoring it for a reprise of the ride later in the summer. Hopefully the other rides worked out ok too. Those stay-aways don't know what they were missing. | ||
