Report:A great roughly ride following Rogers Planned route which was led by Des as Roger was unable to lead due to illness. Des was held up due to a technical with his van and the ever helpful Modern Cyclist saved the day and picked Des up. Waiting at OMH Terry and Steph were feeling the autumnal air and when Des arrived he kindly did his best to warm them up! We headed out to Uffington Via Goosey and Baulking and paused for breath before climbing Fawler hill. Terry had the wind in his sails and was first up! We then went along the spring-line to Westcot, Sparsholt and stopped for coffee at Childrey. A leisurely half hour break and catch up when Paul Bentley passed on his Mountain Bike it took a time to recognise him but we called him back and he rode the return section of the ride with us. Through Letcombes and back via Ham road to Grove. A lovely morning. Thanks Des for stepping up to lead the ride! | ||
