Report:
A perfect day for cycling great company and sunshine.
We headed out to Wantage and through the Letcombes.
As we approached Childrey we decided to carry on through Childrey to Westcot rather than turn left at the crossroads.
When we arrived at Lizzies for coffee what a delicious spread of cakes and muffins savoury and sweet waiting for us, really fantastic thank you Lizzie, my favourite was the chocolate cake made with red kidney beans.
After a long coffee stop with plenty of banter we headed back to childrey, Goosey Denchworth and home.
Distance:
28.97 km (18.00 mi)
