Riders:Des HiggsDiana Whidborne John Groves Karl Blake Lorna Swanton Martyn Wigmore Patrick O'Leary Stephanie Haddrell Tim Waite Riders = 9 Report:A beautiful September morning for a ride. A revisit of a ride which Steve Swanton led earlier in the year for the benefit of the Thursday morning group, all of whom climbed to the ridgeway without difficulty, and were rewarded with splendid views of the Vale and a beautiiful descent into Hendred. The path from Hendred had been cleared and so there were no sore legs. Coffee/ lunch at Ardington was a sociable event with more than the usual banter! A lovely morning with great company. Thanks to Des and Karl for sweeping and keeping the leader in check! | ||
