Riders: Carin Tranter Geoff Neill Kevin Hazell Patrick O'Leary Sarah Macaulay Riders = 5 Weather: Report: I picked up this ride after Di couldn't make it. We still had 5 riders, even with the short notice. The wind was very strong in our faces at times and I am grateful to Geoff and to Kev for leading the group for part of the time. We went for a simple route out to Charney via Lyford and then on to Gainfield and on to coffee at Stanford where we saw the 2* group. We came back via Park Lane with the wind still hitting us in the face at times. We made it though! Thanks everybody Carin
