Tuesday 1* Evening Ride | 1* |
---|
Leader:Steve Boreham |
Start Time:6:30 pm |
Start Location:OMH |
Description:Our leisurely and sociable 10-mile club rides are designed specifically with adult newcomers to cycling and youngsters in mind, or those who just want some relaxed and sociable exercise. We cover a distance of about 10 miles at a gentle pace of 8-10 mph, following quiet country lanes and the occasional easy off-road track. We stop regularly to catch our breath, to take in the views and anything that takes our interest along the way.Tonight we will go out via Denchworth, and on to Charney Bassett and Gainfield, before arriving at Stanford in the Vale. We return via Park Lane & Asti Stud. Optional stop at The Fox in Denchworth at the end of the ride. Slightly longer ride at about 14 miles. Lights recommended if stop at the pub. |

Report:Despite the good weather, it was a surprisingly small group of four of us tonight. Although others took up the challenge of the 2 star.However, this made for a wonderful relaxed ride in the sunshine. Several relaxed "chat" stops - some at impromptu moments (not that we were not talking as we rode along!!) Due to this, we were comparatively late back (8.20pm) to Grove. Was wonderful to maximise the long sunny evening, and were even able to reminisce about holidays past, of lovely memories.... and we also discussed bathroom refurbishments - does the excitement ever end?? Thanks to all three of you for a lovely ride - enjoyed your company - and so a very easy ride to lead, and to round off, I joined other riders back at the pub. Cannot be bad.... | ||
Distance:22.53 km (14.00 mi) | ||
