Tuesday 2* Evening Ride 2*
Leader:
John Tranter
Start Time:
6:30 pm
Start Location:
OMH
Description:
Weekly 1.5 hour rides at a riding pace of 18-20km/h (11-13mph). Not likely to be very hilly.

This is a bridging ride at the lower level of the range to encourage riders who feel ready to move up to the next star level.

I'm going to be slightly cheeky here and take a route that Nicole led a few weeks ago and reverse it - it's amazing the difference it makes! So, out via Denchworth to Charney Bassett, Pusey and Hinton Waldrist, then along to the handy footbridge to re-cross the A420 and back down the perfect tarmac from Southmoor to West Hanney and home.

19 miles at a good steady 12mph or so, with no hills.

Weather:
sunny
Report:
What a beautiful evening! A total contrast with the howling gales that cancelled everything only a week ago. A nice group, including some stepping up from 1*. All went smoothly and we had a very nice roll around the northern part of the Vale.

Thanks to all for very pleasant company.
Distance:
