Daytime 1* Ride Series	1*

Leader: Diana Whidborne	Start Time: 10:30 am	Start Location: OMH
Description: Social rides up to 24km (15 miles), usually with a cafe stop, at a riding pace of 13-16km/h (8-10mph). Please check website on the morning of the ride if the weather is poor as it may be cancelled or the start time changed. I plan to go in the same direction as last week but head to the hendreds, feather bed lane and stop at Q Gardens for coffee. Weather is looking good.
Riders: Carin Tranter David Bridge Des Higgs Diana Whidborne John Groves Karl Blake Lizzie Long Martyn Wigmore Paul Bentley Roger Postbeschild Riders = 10 Report: We set off in the fog but soon the sun crept through and we had a lovely sunny ride out from Grove, Lains Barn, Ardington and through Ginge and the Hendreds, stopping for coffee at Q Gardens. We returned on a similar route but took the Tugwells track back to Wantage. We all went our seperate ways at the end of the track. Roger was in a hurry to get back with his Valentine daffodils that he had bought at Q Thanks to Des and Karl for sweeping.
Distance: 30.90 km (19.20 mi)
