Tuesday Evening Off-road Ride | 2* |
---|
Leader:Robin Tucker |
Start Time:6:30 pm |
Start Location:OMH |
Description:Off-road ride around local tracks, usually about 15 miles. Knobbly tyres and good lights required. We are keen to welcome new riders and have spare lights available to borrow if you let me know. Dark, cold and wet - we'll ride in any two. But please let me know if you are coming so I can tell you if I decide to cancel due to really bad weather. Optional stop at The Fox in Denchworth at the end of the ride. |

Report:A wet one tonight. Both rainwater and beer!It was tipping down as we assembled in Grove and left down the canal route. We decided on just a short one, so rode through Sparsholt and up Sparsholt Field to make the necessary pilgrimage to the Ridgeway. Then we turned 180 degrees and back down the hill, a little cautiously on the wet surface, but splashing through the puddles with no thought to our drivetrains and suspension bearings! We then hit the road to The Fox, and met up with the equally damp road riding crew. It is surely the mark of a great cycling group that well over a dozen people turned up to ride on a wet night! | ||
Distance:22.53 km (14.00 mi) | ||
