Riders:Angela Douglas (dec)David Bridge Ginny Henderson Glen Savegar Jan McCabe Jane Pearson Neil Warner Richard Divall Riders = 8 Report:I thought with it being the New Year, and everyone having recently made resolutions, that the numbers would have been high, but only 6 of us turned up at Grove - I guess others must have been put of by the weather forcast, however whilst it looked a bit dull, it was actually fine and we stayed dry and warm(ish) for the whole ride.Shortly after we left, we were joined by Neil and Ginny, taking the numbers to 8 until Jane left us (as planned) in Abingdon. We stuck more or less to the planned route, but after Neil had a puncture on the cycleway (and we were impressed by his "scabs") we decided to take a shorter route to the tea rooms, where we were met by Steve, we all enjoyed the refreshment before the short return via Lains BarnThanks to David for leading Jan | ||
