Report:
A perfect evening for a bike ride and obviously lots of you thought the same - a great turnout. A particular welcome to Gillie on her first ride with us. It was also great to welcome back Clare fresh from her smashing the London Marathon a few days ago.

With thanks to Steve S for leading the second group, we followed a nice mellow route around the north of the Vale, with the highlight being a little detour to the stunning church, pond and manor house at the back of Longworth. We also took in the bridleway from there along the edge of the Thames Valley ridge into beautiful Hinton Waldrist. Narrowly resisting the temptation to drop down to Duxford for a Thames swim, we headed for home as the sun began to set, at one point giving an owl a race along the hedgerow.

A really lovely ride in great company.
