Report:
With everyone gathered, we set off slightly early, but not as early as the 1* groups, it was lovely to get to say hello to one of them :).

Uneventful ride mainly. Amended the route to remind us how easy the route under the A420 is when its not flooded! We then had a smooth traffic free crossing from Fyfield. A pause before Charney Bassett to allow for all lights to be switched on and raincoats donned ready for the threatening rain. As the rain started a decision made to do the most direct route, this meant we came across one of the 2* group, we settled behind them with a decent gap, with another group in front of them and the weather setting in, it was not the night for overtaking!

Lovely ride, despite the cold damp ending. Hopefully next weeks ride will be less damp!
