Report:Perfect weather for a summer bike ride. Good to use the re-opened bike track alongside the A338 to Wantage and then great to get out into the lovely countryside of the Lockinge Estate (including a little history talk on the mystery of the missing Manor House...)Very nice cake and drinks at the Grocer's Chef and Lain's Barn Road suitably conquered as we all headed home. Thanks to everyone for a great ride in great company. | ||
