Riders:Angie FisherBarry Stanton David Bridge Des Higgs Louise Bowers Peter Dalgliesh Steve Swanton Terry Ryland Tim Hoyle Riders = 9 Report:A very easy ride to lead as all riders were well up to it. Traffic was quite busy, but not too bad (apart from one or two idiots). We decided to stick to roads as there were a few skinny wheeled carbon road bikes. No problems except around Ginge where the road was almost impassable due to large flints, gravel and potholes, but we managed to negotiate it without incident. Coffee stop at Grocer Chef was up to the usual excellent standard and the service was fast. Then just a gentle ride back to Grove via Lains Barn - no problems at all.Thank you for being a very good group and good company. | ||
