Weather:
sunny
Report:
A glorious summer evening attracted 11 on the ride, so we split into 2 groups, with Kath kindly stepping up to lead the first group.

As the second group, we could occassionally see the lights or high vis tops of the first group in the distance, but only caught up with them as they paused to ensure lights were switched on as approached the A420 crossing, where we did the same so maintained the gap.

Both groups took the decision to turn left in Gainfield and return via Charney rather than the original planned route via Stanford, only saves a couple of km, but meant that we all returned to Grove just on 8pm, whilst the light was still good.
Distance:
32.50 km (20.19 mi)
