Riders:Barry StantonDavid Jackson Des Higgs Gareth Smith Joanna Houlston John Tranter Karl Blake Roger Postbeschild Roger Turnbull Susie Turnbull Val Smith Riders = 11 Report:This was a 2* upper bridging ride which tackled Hackpen Hill. It was a good sized group of 11 riders that turned out on a cool evening. A sign of the times is that three of the riders were on e-bikes, which are clearly gaining popularity and showed their benefit on the climbs. Thanks to Steph for providing the route as part of the pre-populated Tuesday evening 2* rides. It is a good, if challenging, route at this stage of the season. As this was "pub night" a number of us stopped at The Fox in Denchworth before heading home. | ||
