| 1* Saturday Afternoon Ride - West Oxfordshire Lake District | 1* |
|---|
Leader:Nick Portsmouth |
Start Time:2:00 pm |
Start Location:Standlake Village Hall |
Description:This is a pre-bookable ride only. To book your place please text the ride leader no sooner than the Monday before the ride.Monthly 16-32km (10-20 miles) family and social afternoon rides, usually with a tea stop, at a riding pace of 13-16km/h (8-10mph). Occasional short or gentle climbs. This month an away day 1* ride to the Thames Valley starting from the large car park outside Standlake village hall (OX29 7SB) with tea stop at Aston Pottery. I thought I'd repeat a ride I Iast lead in 2018 that gives 1* riders a chance to visit Aston Pottery. After leaving the village hall, we'll ride through the villages of Stanton Harcourt, Hardwick & Yelford before stopping at the pottery after about 12 miles. We'll then have another 6 miles to go back to the hall, via Cote, Shifford & a bridleway to the A415. I'm aiming to to ride near the top end of 1* pace and the route includes a couple of inclines similar to the rise from the A417 to Childrey. |
