Report:
Good strong ride out to Ashbury with a bit of an unwelcome headwind in places. The group got a bit spreadout along the Spring Line Road which is not unusual along there. :)

At the Challow turning off the Spring Line, 5 of the group continued in to Wantage and home, which left 4 of us to continue on the route. Andy had a pucture near the railway bridge just before Denchworth and urged the rest of us to carry on without him, as he may be some time...
Phil left us in Denchworth to head back to Hanney, so Richard & I were the only ones to arrive back at Old Mill Hall.
