Weather:
sunny intervalswindy (fine)cold
Report:
A bright but chilly morning for a well supported two star ride.
Good to welcome Pauline and also to welcome back Katherine and Karl after enforced lay-offs.
The north easterly was testing on the way up to cross the A420 but the tail wind down through Pewsey and Stanford was a rare pleasure.
We were beaten to the café by the one star group - however they couldn't leave before us until we removed bikes that were covering up theirs......
Seven of us enjoyed a further coffee and chin-wag on returning to Grove.
Distance:
33.20 km (20.63 mi)
