| Off Road Tuesday Evening Ride | 2* |
|---|
Leader:Robin Tucker |
Start Time:6:30 pm |
Start Location:WMP |
Description:Off-road ride around local tracks, usually about 15 miles. Knobbly tyres required and good lights when it gets dark (‘get you home’ lights in Spring/Autumn). We are keen to welcome new riders and can make recommendations or have spare lights to borrow if you let me know. Dark, cold and wet - we’ll ride in any two. But please let me know if you are coming so I can tell you if we decide to cancel due to really bad weather. |

Report:Another convert from road to off it, with Eddie. And another dry ride snatched from between rainfalls. Pretty much dark from the start though.Tonight was an extended version of a 'pub night' ride, except not getting close to the Fox. We headed out to Letcombe and up to the Segsbury Castle. Then SW to Sheepdrove and west to the partly rutted descent at Seven Barrows - which was actually quite fun. Then it was north to the Ridgeway, but not along it - just straight over and down the Sparsholt Field the other side. A great run down. Then back on a mix of quiet roads and bridleways. | ||
Distance:27.50 km (17.09 mi) | ||
