Riders:Andy CowanFrank Schroer Jason Jones Nick Fisher Nick Stokell Paul Jarvis Phil Ward Richard Kembleton Riders = 8 Weather: Report:Nine of us left Grove, and headed up Chain Hill. Pete Cowan's pre-ride fettling led to an early finish for him at the top of Chain, in search of a missing cassette spacer; sorry to see him go so early on in the ride.The rest of us headed on towards Great Shefford, where someone seems to have borrowed large chunks of the tarmac; one to avoid until the holes reach the requisite 6cm and are then filled. I'm not holding my breath. On from there to Lambourn, then a quiet gentle climb up to the top of Blowingstone, with some suspicions of mechanical doping directed at Phil - I think the classic frame he was on was making Andy jealous. Heading back from there via Goosey and Denchworth, finishing with the requisite sprint into Grove, prompting some post-ride discussions about the 'real' finish line. Another great Tuesday evening ride, with glorious weather to boot - thanks to everyone who came out. | ||
