Report:
As there were only 2 riders on the 1*, the two rides joined together. (See Lorna's 1* report too.)

As a group of 7 it was to a very good day for a ride as it was only 1 degree C when we set off but we took it very steady as the road from Grove to Denchworth was very icy. Everybody was relaying warnings to each other so no mishaps. It was very cold so we pushed on from Fyfield Wick through to Kingston Bagpuize to Southmoor, rather then crossing the A420 into Fyfield and coming back over the bridge at Southmoor. We were very well looked after at Munch Cafe and we all thawed out.

For the return it had got a bit warmer and most of the ice had melted so we made good time back to Grove. Thank you one and all, a very good competent group to lead. Des
