Report:This ride was a surprise birthday event for Des. Everybody knew we were meeting at Des's house for coffee, cake and bacon rolls except Des of course!We met in cloudy weather at Uffington Village Hall and went along past the Woolstone turnings and up to Knighton and onto the Springline road, through Ashbury, Bishopstone to Bourton and Shrivenham. At Shrivenham Des wanted to stop for coffee so we had to confess all that we were going to Longcot for our coffee stop. We had a lovely time, our 5 riders joined 5 other Thursday riders who had ridden out independently, plus members of Des's family. The entertainment was provided by Des's 7 year old grandson and the two guinea pigs! The only damper on the event was the rain which started earlier than expected and made for a cold ride home. | ||
