Leader:Lizzie Long |
Start Time:10:30 am |
Start Location:OMH |
Description:Social rides up to 24km (15 miles), usually with a cafe stop, at a riding pace of 13-16km/h (8-10mph). Please check website on the morning of the ride if the weather is poor as it may be cancelled or the start time changed.Will use the route I planned that got cancelled, i.e. out of Grove via North Drive and on to Ardington for coffee. Nothing too long or strenuous! CHANGE OF PLAN as Grocer chef will be closed. We'll instead do a circular (ish) route and come back to the Cornerstone in Grove for coffee. |

Riders:Carin TranterDavid Bridge Des Higgs Diana Whidborne John Groves John Tranter Karl Blake Lizzie Long Lorna Swanton Martyn Wigmore Paul Bentley Roger Postbeschild Stephanie Haddrell Steve Swanton Riders = 14 Report:A good number of riders turned up for the first mid-week ride of 2020. The weather was very reasonable - a bit cloudy, a bit sunny, a bit windy. The venue for coffee was changed for the second time at the last minute, and the route once, due to many cafes not being open. Martin and Roger led us confidently through the flood at Lockinge and we ended up at the museum (Di's first visit there!) for coffee at the end of a ride that was considerably shorter than of late but hopefully everyone enjoyed it. I think Best Mate enjoyed the company anyway.I apologise for not appointing a sweep! I don't think anyone is out there still.... | ||
