Weather:
black low cloudcloudy with light rain
Report:
It was uncertain whether this ride would go ahead until quite late in the day because of the uncertain weather forecasts. A report of flooding on the off road section and very black thunderclouds to the East made me change the route at the last minute to a westerly, vale one. This is where I need to apologise to everyone as I picked what looked like a suitable route from the archive without realising its the one down for next Tuesday. Sorry!
We were lucky that it only rained lightly during the ride, though we were all soaked by the time we got back home. The ride itself was enjoyable and it was a great group to cycle with.
Extra kudos to Yvonne who cycled to and from Hendred as well as doing the ride.
