Riders: Angie Fisher Anke Otto Barry Stanton David Bridge John Groves Martin Purling Paul Wensley Pauline Clark Peter Dalgliesh Roger Postbeschild Roger Turnbull Riders = 11 Weather: Report: Unseasonably cold weather for mid May saw your ride leader in winter jacket and long bibs.....it did, at least, warm up a bit after the first 30 minutes. The weather, despite the temperature, was relatively benign with hardly any rain and at least some sunshine. The north wind however...... Stanford Coffee Shop was particularly efficient. Thanks to Peter for taking the second group and to Roger T for sweeping.
