Winter Evening Ride incl Social Evening	2*

Leader: Chris Walters	Start Time: 7:00 pm	Start Location: OMH
Description: Quick but flat 2* ride in the Vale for 1.5 hours covering around 30km. We will not ride as fast as 3* pace, nor will we tackle hills. Will not run if icy, very windy or wet - check the website for cancellation by mid-day on the day of the ride. Good lights capable of lasting the full ride are essential, as is suitable clothing to deal with the cold. Please also consider riding with mudguards for the comfort of other riders, as roads are often damp on winter evenings. This week we will have a slightly shorter ride, finishing at the Fox in Denchworth for some liquid refreshment at 20:30, where other club members are invited to join us for a social.
Riders: Adrian West Amanda Seddon Andy Cowan Chris Walters David Smith Des Higgs Frank Schroer Geoff Covey Katherine Boyce Richard Preece Steve Burr Ursula Hallam Riders = 12 Weather: Report: The roads were a little damp, but we still mustered twelve riders for tonight's ride. Well done to Steve Burr, completing his first 2* ride on his shiny new road bike, and a special thank-you to Richard for being a great sweep tonight and for the last couple of weeks two. Arriving back at the Fox, it was nice to be welcomed by the Talbots and also the off-road riders for a natter and a noggin.
