| Off Road Tuesday Evening Ride | 2* |
|---|
Leader:Roger Postbeschild |
Start Time:6:30 pm |
Start Location:WMP |
Description:Please pre-book for this ride by contacting the ride leader. Off-road ride around local tracks, usually about 15 miles. Knobbly tyres required and good lights when it gets dark (‘get you home’ lights in Spring/Autumn). We are keen to welcome new riders and can make recommendations or have spare lights to borrow if you let us know. Dark, cold and wet - we’ll ride in any two. But please let us know if you are coming so we can tell you if we decide to cancel due to bad weather or other reasons.A modest 19km ride to open the season - should be negotiable, with care, on a gravel bike. Start is Wantage Market Place but the actual route starts at The Lord Nelson, happy to collect people there! LIGHTS WILL BE REQUIRED. |

Report:It was good to meet new member Amy and also to see Tim, for the first time in a while.In order to match the ride to the riders, the original route was modified, climbing to the Ridgeway, heading eastwards into a very chilly wind (my GPS unit recorded 4 degrees) and back via Betterton. Satisfied customers! | ||
