Riders:Brian HipwellChris Walters Christine Phillips Dave McLellan Edith Hipwell Gareth Smith Henk Altmann (deceased) Jo Bindloss-Gibb Kevin Fairs Peter Busby Peter Clayton Philip Thornton-Evison Sean OSullivan Sid Liddiard Stephen Quartermain Steve Blake Steve Bruffell Steve Swanton Val Smith Riders = 19 Report:Confusion at the start as no-one knew who was meant to be leading. So Edith suggested a ride out to the Letcombes and back via Childrey and West Challow to use the new railway bridge by Circourt Farm on the Denchworth Road. Someone else suggested climbing Hackpen Hill as a longer option. Agreed.Off we set on a gorgeous evening. Alas, due to hold-ups through Wantage, no-one checking on following riders and not stopping to regroup, the group became split and several riders passed the Letcombe turning and continued up the hill | ||
