| RIDE CANCELLED - Monthly 1* Saturday Afternoon Ride - to Longworth | 1* |
|---|
Leader:Steve Swanton |
Start Time:1:00 pm |
Start Location:OMH |
Description:RIDE CANCELLED due to persisting risk of ice/slippery conditions. Checked out the Denchworth Road at 3pm on Friday afternoon. Unfortunately, there are still large puddles and pockets of persistent icy slush along the road between the cemetery and railway bridge. With sub-zero temperatures expected again overnight, these are likely to refreeze. So, regrettably, I am cancelling the ride in the interest of rider safety.This month we'll ride northwards to Longworth for refreshments at the Blue Boar Inn. Not too far, fast or hilly! Out via Charney Bassett and return through Southmoor (making use of the bridge over the A420) and Lyford. A round trip of about 16.5 miles. There will be the option of a scenic 2-mile detour to Hinton Waldrist and Longworth Church making use of a bridleway for those that fancy a little extra. Expect to be back in Grove before 4pm. Please let me know by text if you would like to come. Monthly 16-32km (10-20 miles) family and social afternoon rides, usually with a tea stop, on the third Saturday of the month. Leisurely riding pace of 13-16km/h (8-10mph) . Occasional short or gentle climbs. |
