Not likely to be very hilly.A slightly longer ride tonight, but well worth it. We head north via Denchworth and Charney Bassett, cross the A420 on the wonderful bridleway bridge at Southmoor, then run along to Appleton before cutting back across the A420 at a nifty dual carriageway crossing into Tubney Woods. After a brief section of A338, we cut across through Tubney village to take the secret tunnel entrance to Fyfield. Then home on familiar roads via West Hanney and Denchworth. 23 miles so we should be back by 8.30. There are some short cut options if we need them! |

Riders:David JacksonDes Higgs John Tranter Julie Haynes Roger Postbeschild Stephanie Haddrell Steve Boreham Tess Evans Riders = 8 Weather: Report:Another Tuesday evening with an apocalyptic weather forecast - torrential rain one hour before the start, but in fact once again we got lucky. A brave group gathered and in the end we had wonderful weather conditions for our long evening ride.We had talked about short cuts but all was going well and we did the full route. We ended up crossing the dreaded A420 four times, but even that was uneventful. All round, a great evening ride with great company! | ||
