Weather:
black low cloudcloudy with light rain
Report:
An excellent turnout of 15 riders on a warm and sometimes damp evening. The Spring Line road seemed particularly busy and the undulations seemed to get most people working hard. The new road surface from the Blowingstone pub to the Baulking road were navigated safely this week if at various speeds. A loop around to Fernham and we were soon saying goodbye to Des & Adrian as they made their way home from there.
The dreaded slow puncture was detected by one unlucky rider, but thanks to our chairman’s pumping prowess we all made it back to Grove without changing the tube.
Thanks Richard for sweeping, John for pumping duties and to all for coming along, hope you enjoyed it!
