Please arrive 10 minutes before the start time for the ride leaders briefing and a prompt start to the ride. NB Tonights ride will be run at a slower pace to give 2* riders an opportunity to try out a 3* ride. As well, there is an opportunity to try a 4* ride which will be undertaken at a pace suitable for those getting a taste for the lower end of a 4* ride. Great Brook via Standlake, return via Buckland Pub night!
Riders: Barry Stanton Chris Bailey James Bosley Jamille Sandalo Joy Arthur Juliano Sandalo Simon Atkin Yvonne Bird Riders = 8 Weather: Report: Thankfully the temperature dropped a little before we started and it became a lovely evening for a ride, warm with a gentle breeze. Eight of us enjoyed a mostly flat ride on busy roads and then some lovely narrow lanes and back roads. Buckland Rd was the only significant climb. Yvonne and I left the others in Denchworth as they went to the pub and we made our way back to Grove. On such a lovely evening we felt a little sorry we weren’t joining them for a drink! 🌞
