Description: Enjoy an easy-paced ride around the local lanes.
Riders: Andy Belcher Brian Hipwell Edith Hipwell John Stamp Kevin Fairs Michael Tayler Sara Smith Susan Holdroyd Wenfeng Yang Riders = 9 Report: 18 mile ride this evening out to Denchworth turning left and heading towards Challow Station, a race up the hill turning right towards Sparshot, right again to Westcot through the villlage onto the main road. Turning right again towards White horse hill, right again into Kinston Lisle. A fast descent down common hill reaching speed of 35miles an hour and gliding a good mile over the common without having to pedal. Turning right again heading back to the Wantage /Faringdon road left into Goosey, right past Asti Stud back to Denchworth and Grove. The Groups' fitnes level has improved greatly over the summer months and they enjoy the challenge of speed and hill climbing but not to the level of the 3* ride.
Distance: 29.61 km (18.40 mi)
