Report:
We all set off to tackle this hilly ride with great enthusiasm, (despite some tired legs from the bank holiday ride the day before).
However following a couple of mechanicals involving chains and cleats - we opted to curtail the ride and miss out Peasmore. Probably a sensible decision as it was starting to head towards dusk as we rode down a windy Chain Hill. Still about 35k with about 450m of climbing.
Thanks to the group for respecting the decision.
Distance:
35.00 km (21.75 mi)
