Daytime 2* Thursday Ride	2*

Leader: Richard Kidd	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).
Riders: Angie Fisher Barry Stanton Chris Marchant David Bridge John Groves Louise Bowers Paul Bentley Paul Wensley Pauline Clark Roger Turnbull Terry Ryland Riders = 11 Report: A fairly uneventful ride overall apart from a small navigation failure on my part in the back streets of Abingdon. Fortunately we had locals with us to help find The Barns Cafe. The doughnuts were up to their usual high standard and enjoyed by many. We split into two roughly equal groups and seemed not to be holding up traffic to any greatr degree. The weather gods weren't as kind to us as I had hoped as the forecast 18 degrees never materialised and there was a strong wind which challenged us on the way out but helped us significantly on the return leg. No mechanicals/technical issues for anyone this time.
