Riders:Angie FisherChris Marchant Des Higgs Geoff Neill James Bosley John Groves John Tranter Patrick O'Leary Paul Bentley Roger Postbeschild Roger Turnbull Steve Swanton Riders = 12 Report:What a beautiful day for cycling after all the rain lately. The group was large so we split into two with John T leading the second 6 (many thanks - wouldn't have managed without you). We went out via Goosey, Baulking and Fernham then up the first climb of the day to the A420 and the cut through to Faringdon Community College (one person got slightly lost here but we managed to regroup). The coffee shop was excellent as usual - no complaints there. We left Faringdon via Thrupp and up the second hill to Littleworth. Quite quiet on the A420, not so bad, and on to Hatford then to Grove via Gainfield, Charney and Denchworth.A really enjoyable ride with good company and no problems. Thanks, all! | ||
