Riders:David JacksonDes Higgs Gareth Smith Julie Haynes Sarah Lewis Stephanie Haddrell Tim Waite Val Smith Riders = 8 Report:A lovely still evening with plenty of sunshine. The propsed route was to go up to Sparsholt firs from Sparsholt altough we decided to get the climbing out of the way in the first half of the ride, so went out via the Letcombes and Hackpen returning via Sparshot Westcott Kingston Lisle goosey and Denchworth.A great group of riders, we managed to conquer Hackpen and were enjoying the decent to Sparsholt when we met the other 2* group beginning their challenge to reach the ridgeway. Sarah had a minor mechanical at the foot of Hackpen, not ideal but being a trouper she cracked on and nailed the climb. The return journey was without incident apart from me having a fly in my eye on the decent from Kingston Lisle, a bit scary and note to self to wear glasses! Thanks to all for great company on a beautiful evening. | ||
