Weather:
black low cloudcloudy with light rainsindy (night)
Report:
A scenic ride with a couple of adrenaline dashes across the dual carriageway A420...
A fairly flat ride with quite a head wind, but without the forecast rain apart from a few spots. A good turnout of 16 riders and 2 newish riders, Sian and Keith Mitchell. We cycled out to Longworth, back though Fyfield, joining Winter Lane to Hanney (always a pleasure to ride on that stretch of tarmac) and with a final little loop towards Goosey turning back up through Denchworth, with some riders stopping at The Fox and the rest heading back to Grove.
No mechanicals. Hooray!
Thank you to Eddie for being secondary leader, Yvonne for sweeping and Nick for sweeping and giving good advice to a leader who is still sporting L plates!
