Riders:David BridgeDavid Jackson Des Higgs John Tranter LeeAnn Norris Mila Yearley Paul Bentley Stephanie Haddrell Val Smith Riders = 9 Report:Good to see a new rider in Lee Ann. nut we had to leave without Karl Blake so then there were 9. In great weather we rode through Letcombe and up Holbourn hill. Apart from being warned to keep in by a horse rider and a car trying to pass when there was another car coming in the opposite direction we were fine. We got up Hackpen hill ahead of schedule which took the pressure off us but we still managed to reach Lambourne 15 minutes later.Then the great ride up the Lambourne valley towards Ashbury. We realised we had time for a good break at the top of Ashbury hill and still managed to get back along the Portway to Uffington arriving 5 minutes early. Everybody seemed to make their own way back in their home time. | ||
