We'll then go back on a familiar route to Kingston Bagpuize and then back to Wantage. 61 miles and most of the climbing done in the first half of the ride. It is recommended to order our food in advance as service can be slow at busy times. They were very efficient doing it this way last time we visited.

Report:We had a beautiful, sunny day, lovely villages to cycle through and signs of Spring everywhere - including my first lambs of the year.The Humble Bumble was as efficient as ever and surprisingly quiet. We were also joined by Jackie from Wallingford CTC group, who is building up to a Lejog in July. Thanks to everyone for being such a good humoured group to lead. | ||
