Tuesday Evening 2* Ride	2*

Description: Weekly 1.5 hour rides at a riding pace of 18-20km/h (11-13mph). Not likely to be very hilly. Weekly 1.5 hour rides at a riding pace of 18-20km/h (11-13mph). Not likely to be very hilly. Another longish evening ride. There are however options to cut short if conditions dictate. A pan flat loop out to Fernham, hopefully with a tailwind back! Please bring lights.
Riders: Chris Marchant David Bridge David Jackson Des Higgs Gareth Smith Jan McCabe John Groves Julie Haynes Karl Blake Lisa Footner Mike Bailey Roger Postbeschild Stephanie Haddrell Val Smith Riders = 14 Report: 14 two star riders were kind of joined by 7 one star riders, following the same route. The one star group took advantage of some short cuts and got back before us! No mechanicals, no punctures and a good rate of progress, with the promised tail wind home. The event was kicked off by a 'cake' presentation to Karl, on the occasion of his 100th club ride this season, still just behind Des on the leaderboard!
Distance: 39.60 km (24.61 mi)
