Tuesday Evening Rides

Leader: Edith Hipwell	Start Time: 6:30 pm	Start Location: OMH
Description: We will aim to have two rides leaders for leisurely and sporty options.
Riders: Alan Price Andrew Robertson Andy Cowan Brian Hipwell Bryan Charleston Chris Lea Chris Walters David Bridge Dean Douglas Des Higgs Edith Hipwell Frank Schroer Geoff Neill Jo Bindloss-Gibb Kevin Fairs Lee Wright Neil Warner Philip Thornton-Evison Richard Anstis Richard Preece Sorrel Williams Steve Joyce Steve Swanton Wenfeng Yang Riders = 24 Report: The moderate ride route is here: http://connect.garmin.com/activity/365935. A different, but interesting ride for the moderate group this evening. Heading up to Lains Barn and then over the top through Lockinge, East Ginge and West Hendred. Then followed the A417 through to Rowstock and up to Harwell Business Centre. We then swooped down the hill at Chilton to cross the A417 again to West Hagbourne where the local pub seemed to have every motorbike rider in the County in its beer garden! We followed through to Didcot where we had a short pitstop for a flat tyre and then onto Harwell village. We cut across to Q Gardens (always pays to know the route before heading off the front!) and then onto Steventon, Hanneys, Denchworth and home. On the road from Steventon, we set up an interesting rolling peloton with us all taking turns up at the front to get back before dark.
