Riders:Carin TranterDavid Bridge Des Higgs Karl Blake Lorna Swanton Martyn Wigmore Mavis Rose Patrick O'Leary Roger Postbeschild Stephanie Haddrell Susan Holdroyd Riders = 11 Report:As we made our way to Old Mill Hall for the start of our ride the heavens opened, and to be honest I thought I might have to return home and tackle some of those dull jobs which I had been saving for a rainy day... but NO there were 11 riders all game for a laugh and keen to get out and enjoy the fresh air! ( perhaps they had even worse jobs waiting for them!!) It was great to welcome Mavis who had not been out for sometime.Very quickly the rain eased and we had a very pleasant ride out to Faringdon via Baulking and Fernham. A welcome Latte at the coffee shop in the square and a pain au raisin to die for... Thanks Des for sparing my blushes as I had left my phone and money at home. The ride back was through Gainsford and Charney and all went smoothly until Martyn had a flat.. he opted to ride and pump his way back to Wantage, accompanied by Susan. Thanks to all who turned out despite the weather... until next week. | ||
