Leader:Carin Tranter |
Start Time:6:30 pm |
Start Location:Old Mill Hall |
Description:West Challow and Childrey (10 miles).Please pre-book for this ride by contacting the ride leader. Our leisurely and sociable Tuesday evening 1* rides are designed specifically with adult newcomers to cycling and youngsters in mind, or those who just want some relaxed and sociable exercise. We cover a distance of 10-15 miles (16-24km) at a gentle pace of 8-10 mph (13-16kph), following quiet country lanes and the occasional easy off-road track. We stop regularly to catch our breath, to take in the views and anything that takes our interest along the way. |

Riders:Anke OttoCarin Tranter Diana Whidborne Karl Blake Martyn Wigmore Michael Tayler Tim Waite Riders = 7 Report:We set off altogether but unfortunately Karl had to stop due to a bike malfunction - he had to pull out of the ride. A very interesting route out to Denchworth and then along to the main road via Challow Marsh. We went along the A417 and then into West Challow. We took the track up to Childrey and then along the next track back to East Challow, which was full of big holes but at least they were not full of water. Anke left us at West Challow as this was her home ( she had already ridden out to Grove from West Challow originally). We came down through the estate and turned left back onto the A417, past the village hall and onto the canal tow path to Grove. A very interestingly different ride. Enjoyed by all. | ||
