Report:
Seven headed out on a overcast evening, Welcome back to John Cooke don't leave it so long before you ride with us again
Nick Dutton first four star this year along with Nick stokell helped sharing with ride leading responsibilities.
A flat route heading towards Lechlade followed by a climb towards Coles hill. Ruth on her fixed gear bike with tri bars came to the front leaving us all in her wake hanging on to her wheel ! from Shrivenham, Baulking In all the excitement we missed a turning hence the slight change to the planned route
Apparently the Denchworth dash was only contended by Ruth and Jason ( the first time he had been seen at the front !)

All in all a enjoyable ride getting back to old mill hall by 8.50pm Hopefully the next come and try ride will see more riders making the step up !
