Weekly 1.5 hour rides at a riding pace of 18-20km/h (11-13mph). Not likely to be very hilly.

Optional sociable stop at The Fox, Denchworth after the ride.

A few 'roads less travelled' tonight. Out via Denchworth and Park Lane to Standford in the Vale, then a lovely quiet road from Hatford across to the A420. A short section on the roadside path then brings us to the picturesque village of Buckland, rarely visited on our rides without the accompanying climb of the hill from the Thames valley which we cunningly avoid this evening. After a tour of the village back streets we will follow the quiet lanes back to Charney Bassett and Denchworth.

17 miles to the pub, 19 miles all the way back to Grove.

Weather:
sunny intervals
Report:
Relatively modest numbers this week - perhaps a half term effect, perhaps a slightly dodgy weather forecast. In the event, the clouds thinned out and we enjoyed a lovely sunny evening - although the temperature dropped noticeably as the evening wore on.

A good group stayed together well and we had an uneventful and fun ride.

Thanks to all for your company!
