Leader:
Steve Swanton

Sunshine is expected, so a leisurely ride, to enjoy the views, eastwards to Ginge via The Lord Nelson and Lockinge along NCN 544. Then continue eastwards on the farm track to Newbury Rd, then north to join the Icknield Greenway back to Ardington (for a coffee stop at the Grocer chef) via the ‘bridge of lesser doom’. Then the new link road back to Grove. Back for 12.30. John Stamp will be co-leading this one.

Easy sociable ride of 24-32 km (15-20 miles) at a pace of 14-17km/h (9-11 mph). Please let Steve know if you are planning to come.

Weather:
sunny
Report:
An excellent day for a ride, fantastic wall to wall blue sky and excellent views. And judging by the chatter a good sociable ride. Some traffic going out to Ginge and one short section of wet/mud on entering Ardington. ‘Bridge of lesser doom’ still a tad scary, at least for the joint leader. Enjoyable coffee stop in the sunshine at the Grocer Chef Ardington. John
