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 !)
