Daytime 2* Thursday Ride	2*

Leader: Roger Postbeschild	Start Time: 10:00 am	Start Location: OMH
Description: Please pre-book for this ride by contacting the ride leader. Sociable ride of 24-40 km (15-25 miles) at a pace of 18-20km/h (11-13 mph). Taking advantage of the good weather forecast, a visit to the Appleton Community Shop, where we should be able to sit outside in the sunshine.
Riders: Angie Fisher David Bridge Des Higgs Geoff Neill John Groves Patrick O'Leary Peter Dalgliesh Roger Postbeschild Roger Turnbull Stephanie Haddrell Terry Ryland Riders = 11 Weather: Report: Glorious sunshine - we enjoyed it whilst we could! A nice, easy, wind assisted run out to Appleton where we all basked outside in the sunshine. Slightly harder on the return run. It was so warm that yours truly even exposed his knees - much to the consternation of Steph who hadn't realised that I could maintain decency whist doing this! There were even reports of the natives in Tubney complaining about the whiteness of said exposed knees.... A couple of the usual suspects booked very late on to this ride....I am considering imposing a cut-off time for bookings.
Distance: 40.30 km (25.04 mi)
