Off Road Tuesday Evening Ride | 2* |
---|
Leader:Robin Tucker |
Start Time:6:30 pm |
Start Location:WMP |
Description:As a courtesy to the ride leader, we ask that you pre-book for this ride. Off-road ride around local tracks, usually about 15 miles. Knobbly tyres required and good lights when it gets dark (‘get you home’ lights in Spring/Autumn). We are keen to welcome new riders and can make recommendations or have spare lights to borrow if you let me know. Dark, cold and wet - we’ll ride in any two. But please let me know if you are coming so I can tell you if we decide to cancel due to really bad weather. |

Riders:Richard PethybridgeRobin Tucker Riders = 2 Report:Surprisingly dry given the weather forecast, which had double rain drops all evening. In fact we only had a couple of patches of scarcely noticeable drizzle and I didn't even bother to put my raincoat on.The trails were wet, causing caution for those of us still on optimistic summer tyres though. We went out via Letcombe and up at Segsbury, then across to Fawley and Farnborough, the rain seemed to have given new life to the nettles in the woods! But we made quite a big loop before tacking on a little climb at the end so we could enjoy coming down Jolly Green and Goddards Brook. | ||
