Riders:Barry StantonChris Bailey David Talboys Eddie Little Graeme Dowson James Bosley Jane John Jon Townsin Joy Arthur Karen Froud Kirsten Smith LeeAnn Norris Nicole Pethybridge Roger Turnbull Riders = 14 Weather: Report:Whether it was the threat of rain or the promise of 500m of climbing we'll never know but 14 riders set out to scale the mountainous region to the south of Wantage. Barry sadly left us early on (was it because I didn't answer your text?! . Fortunately our numbers were swelled by Karen joining us at the top of Chain Hill. The weather was absolutely fantastic and the descent into West Illsey was beautiful. And the hills kept coming ... Up to Catmore and then Brightwalton and on to Wooley and finally back up the 338 to a splendid 'whoop' down Manor Road. Thanks to all for braving the climbing and to Eddie for sweeping and Roger for taking the last stretch home. | ||
