10 Mile Club 1*	1*

Leader: David Smith	Start Time: 6:30 pm	Start Location: OMH
Description: A flatter ride around the Vale villages this evening including a social stop at the Fox, Denchworth at the end of the ride. Figure of 8 via Asti Stud to Goosey, Charney road to West Hanney, Ockbridge to Lyford and back to the Fox @ Denchworth. These rides are designed to be a leisurely and sociable introduction to group riding and to build rider confidence. As the name suggests, we aim to cover about 10 miles at a speed of about 10 miles per hour, stopping to rest and look at interesting things on the way. Accompanied children and newcomers very welcome.
Riders: David Smith Steve Burr Riders = 2 Report: Only 2 of us on the 1* tonight so at Steve's request we upped the pace a bit and made such good time that we would have been arriving at The Fox about 7:30 so we decided to add an extra loop on to the ride and ended up at The Fox about 10 minutes before the 2* group arrived.
Distance: 25.75 km (16.00 mi)
