Off Road Tuesday Evening Ride | 3* |
---|
Leader:Robin Tucker |
Start Time:6:30 am |
Start Location:WMP |
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 me know. Dark, cold and wet - we’ll ride in any two. But please let me know if you are coming so I can tell you if we decide to cancel due to really bad weather. |

Riders:David BrownDavid Yearley Robin Tucker Riders = 3 Report:A return to form tonight, by actually having a ride!And while not raining, it was properly wet ground, very sloppy in places, we had a minor mechanical, and finished at a pub. The ride was quite minor: up Goddards Brook, down Ice Valley, straight back up and down to Betterton, and back via Ardington. The mechanical was a bolt falling off of one of DB's shoe cleats, leaving him stuck to a pedal. Almost comical. He extracted his foot and we spent a while getting his boot off the pedal. Cleverly he had a spare bolt in his toolkit - a wise addition for us all. At the end, it was in to the Nelson for a pint. | ||
