Report:
A beautiful sunny morning for a ride out and so lovely to have three ladies in addition to myself on a 2* ride! Also good to see Nick Portsmouth out on his first 2* of the season and to be joined by new rider Peter Dalgleish. We headed out on the planned route to Fernham via Goosey and baulking enjoying the sun and a tail wind. We then went into Little Coxwell before crossing the A420 which was as one would expect for a bank holiday weekend crazy.
As we made our way to great Coxwell I considered our options and given how busy Lechlade was going to be decide to put plan B into operation, stopping at Coleshill and avoiding Lechlade.
All was good, we divided into 3's to go down the hill to allow cars to pass, it was however rather unfortunate that Anke and Peter being unfamiliar with the cafe stop overshot the turn, my appologies to them both. We did however have a lovely stop and the cinnamon buns and coffee were amazing. After coffee we made our way to Buscot and then after a brief stretch on the Lechlade road went onto Radcot, and home via Littleworth, Hatford, Charney Bassett and Denchworth. A lovely ride with great company and thanks to Roger for leading a second group.
