Report:Now this was summer!It a great ride; simple but with an initial climb to the Ridgeway from Market Place via Goddard's Brook, and then along across the top of the Letcombes, before a chalky descent from above Westcot. Then there was a final run to The Fox at Denchworth. The trail conditions were perfect, the weather was perfect, the company was perfect, the beers... You get the idea. | ||
