Report:
We were lucky enough to have another warm, sunny autumn day to ride in, though there was a tough headwind for most of the way round (thanks to John G. for taking the lead at one time). The roads were fairly quiet and the scenery was great. Congratulations to Sally for her first ascent of Hackpen and first descent of Chain Hill.
Thanks to everyone for being a great group to ride with.
