Riders:Chris BaileyEddie Little Joy Arthur Katherine Boyce LeeAnn Norris Sharon Bedford Riders = 6 Weather: Report:Six of us set off from Grove on a very steamy & hot evening Unfortunately this was short lived as poor Joy got a puncture by the Tesco Express.  As it was so hot, Joy very kindly didn’t want to hold the ride up, so she decided to leave the ride. I hope you got home safely Joy! Please remember I am always more than happy to mend a puncture for anyone who is on my ride, never a problem!!The five of us carried on around the Thames Valley enjoying the beautiful views & some wonderful fragrances of summer. One of the highlights of the ride was Greatbrook & Old Shifford which never fails to disappoint no matter the season. We said goodbye to Kath at Southmooor, as her bike had a date with the Modern Cyclist. That then just left the four of us to make our way back to Grove. Thanks to everyone for being such excellent company. Hopefully see you all very soon on another ride!!  | ||
