3* Extended Sunday Shortie to Ashbury	3*

Leader: Katherine Boyce	Start Time: 9:00 am	Start Location: The Beacon
Description: Please pre-book for this ride by contacting the ride leader. A 3 Hour ride (24-40km / 15-25 miles), riding pace of 20-24km/h (13-15mph). Not suitable for irregular riders. Climbing likely. As we have missed so much riding this year, I've extended this a bit and put in a potential coffee stop at Ashbury. Out via Denchworth, Hatford, Longcot and Shrivenham. Back via the Springline Road, Sparsholt, Childrey and East Challow. 52km with a hillier second half.
Riders: Andy Pixton Eddie Little Jo Little Katherine Boyce Lisa Footner Philippe Marchioro Sharon Bedford Riders = 7 Report: Brutal head wind to Shrivenham. Great return from Ashbury cafe. Their scones were definitely up to scratch 🤣
