Riders:Barry StantonDavid Jackson Des Higgs Gerry Jones Jenny Gower John Tranter Karl Blake Roger Postbeschild Stephanie Haddrell Terry Penn Riders = 10 Report:A mild morning if a little cloudier than forecast! Lovely to have 10 riders out on a Sunday morning, the competition for top slots on the leader board is hotting up! We headed out to Hanney via Denchworth as planned, stopping to put waterproofs on in Debchworth We then rode on to Charney Bassett, by which time the rain had stopped and waterproofs had to be removed. On through Goosey and to the A417 for a short stint before turning right to Childrey. Unfortunately Karl had a puncture as we turned onto the A 417 and he and terry were held up. The rest of us waited for them and after a short delay we decided to break for coffee at Childrey. After a welcome coffee and cake we then prepared for the hill of the day, sadly Karl had another puncture and opted to hang back and make his own way back with Des. The rest of the group continued on through the Letcombes with Terry flying at the front, making the most of the descent into Letcombe Bassett. The sun came out as we made our way home through Wantage and back to Grove where some of us stopped in Parsons for further refreshments and met up with Karl and Des.A lovely mornings ride with great company, thanks to all and to Terry and Des for supporting Karl in his hour of need. | ||
