Leader:Stephanie Haddrell |
Start Time:10:00 am |
Start Location:OMH |
Description:Please note the later start time of 10am.A 63km ride out to Root one at Wallingford for brunch. A fairly flat route and most of the hills will be in the first half of the ride, or at least just after refuelling at Root one! As a courtesy to the ride leader, we ask that you pre-book for this ride. Half day ride (45-55km / 30-40 miles), with a tea stop, at a riding pace of 18-20km/h (11-13mph). Not likely to be very hilly. Might be a struggle for new or irregular riders in winter months. This is a pre-bookable ride. To book a place, text your name to the ride leader no earlier than 9:00am on the Sunday before the ride. You will receive confirmation or be advised that the ride is fully booked. A reserve list will be maintained. |

Report:A select group of 3 gathered at Old Mill Hall for a ride out towards Wallingford. Steph, David and thank the lord for Karl!We had an uneventful ride out to Didcot via Icknield way and the disused railway track from Upton. We then navigated the labrynth of cycle paths through Didcot, such great paths! We were making good time as we tackled Sires Hill and looking forward to refreshments at Root one when David's chain broke! Thank the lord for Karl! No fuss just a simple matter of removing the broken link and replacing it; what a star! We made it safely to root one and enjoyed coffee and cake. We then decided to err on the side of caution and changed the return route to avoid the hills of Wittenham clumps. All in all a very pleasant ride with good company, although of course we missed our usual partners in crime! Thanks again Karl the very modern cyclist! | ||
