Riders:David JacksonDes Higgs Eddie Little Julie Haynes Karen Bunting Karl Blake Sally Bensoussis Sarah Lewis Stephanie Haddrell Riders = 9 Report:A lovely day for a ride, warm little wind and great company. We headed out from Grove via Denchworth and on to Goosey Fernham and Little Coxwell. After crossing the A420 we went on to Great Coxwell and stopped at the Barn for a brief respite a minor hiccup as Sally had a puncture. This provided the perfect opportunity for some photos and appreciation of the Great Barn, whist Eddie and Karl worked their magic. refreshed we climbed the hill to Badbury clumps and enjoyed the descent to Coleshill. Taking the school lane across to Buscot, Des suggested we call into Jason Donovan's for coffee so we were disappointed to see him out on his bike!We then headed on to Lechlade, Little Faringdon arriving at our coffee destination in Filkins just before 12. Great to see Jan and Paul McCabe there to meet us. Having smelt bacon and chips on our journey past the Trout, we were disappointed that they were not serving lunch, just cake and cheese scones. Nevertheless we enjoyed a break, some great cakes and scones, a chat and a wander before our return journey, through Clanfield, Bampton and Buckland, Charney Basset and home. Thanks to all for a great morning. | ||
