Leader:Steve Swanton |
Start Time:6:30 pm |
Start Location:OMH |
Description:An essentially flat ride around the vale this evening heading to Charney Bassett, Ock Bridge and West Hanney, with the choice of taking either an off-road track back to Denchworth (a little stony in places) or the lovely resurfaced road. There is the opportunity for riders to stop for a sociable drink or a meal at the Fox, with riders from the other groups. If anyone would prefer to head straight back to Grove, the leader is happy to continue back.With the evenings drawing in rapidly (sadly, this is our penultimate ride of the season) lights are recommended and will be required if stopping at the pub for a drink. 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. Optional social stop at The Fox at Denchworth at the end of the ride. |
