Off Road Tuesday Evening Ride | 2* |
---|
Leader:Robin Tucker |
Start Time:6:30 pm |
Start Location:Wantage Market Place |
Description:Please pre-book for this ride by contacting the ride leader. Off-road ride around local tracks, usually about 15 miles. Knobbly tyres required and good lights when it gets dark (‘get you home’ lights in Spring/Autumn). We are keen to welcome new riders and can make recommendations or have spare lights to borrow if you let us know. Dark, cold and wet - we’ll ride in any two. But please let us know if you are coming so we can tell you if we decide to cancel due to bad weather or other reasons. |

Report:It really felt like the proper start to the riding season with six people out and the trails in mostly good shape.We did find one muddy section off the back of the Ridgeway that was a real skills test though, all slithery and wheels going a bit sideways, but good fun and everyone staying mostly upright. We headed up at Letcombe through Segsbury Castle, a solid climb, but once done, it was done, then looped south to Sheepdrove, getting in a bit a a tarmac drag before the fun descent at Sparsholt Field. A bit of B-road and it was another fun little descent into Sparsholt before heading to the pub at Denchworth. Mileage includes the ride back to our Wantage start point. | ||
