Report:6 riders set off at a good pace but by the time we reached Denchworth we had lost Barry E to a puncture as he decided to turn back - we continued on with 5. But just as we entered Charney the cry went up of another puncture - this time Barry S. He replaced the tube after finding the culprit, a small flint. We had a quick vote and decided to change route and head for the Cantorist at Chidrey as everyone was cold and Barry wasn't trusting his tyres after a run of punctures. We were well looked after at the cafe and got safely back home.If I had to title this ride it would be 'Barrys' punctures'. Thanks to everyone for your company on a trying ride! | ||
