Leader:Sharon Bedford |
Start Time:9:15 am |
Start Location:Beacon Car Park |
Description:Please pre-book for this ride by contacting the ride leader.Not sure whether you should plan a ride around a cafe ….. but why not? I have been wanting to go back to Tray's Cafe in Hungerford for quite a while now so a Saturday Ride gives that opportunity. Slightly longer than a normal half day ride - 65k with hills - but hopefully some lovely scenery along the way. |

Report:The weather was much nicer than forecast and we managed a dry ride to Hungerford and back. We even commented it felt like spring when the sun came out.The roads were mostly dry - although we had to be careful on the minor routes due to gravel and other debris - actually having to get off and push on a short section above Eastbury. Tray's Cafe was a little busy - but it had the warm and friendly welcome I had remembered and the cakes, (cheese scones and apple crumble muffins) got a big thumbs up. A hilly ride but everyone coped well and there was lots of friendly chatter along the way. Thanks for being a great group to lead. | ||
