Tuesday Evening 2* Ride	2*

Leader: John Tranter	Start Time: 6:30 pm	Start Location: OMH
Description: Taking account of the heat, we will have a fairly gentle ride this week. Also very suitable for anyone who has done a few 1* rides and wants to test themselves with a slightly longer ride. A loop through some the beautiful villages of the Vale, dead flat and at a gentle pace of around 12mph. Denchworth, West Hanney, Fyfield, Hinton Waldrist and then back via Pusey and either Charney Bassett or Stanford-in-the-Vale depending on how we are feeling. Around 20 miles.
Riders: Andy Belcher Brian Hipwell Charlotte Styles Des Higgs Geoff Neill Ian Howland John Tranter Maurice Bawden Mila Yearley Steve Boreham Steve Joyce Susan Fletcher Watts Val Smith Vicky Fox Vyvyan Hazell Riders = 15 Weather: Report: Pretty much the perfect cycling weather - a lovely warm evening with no wind. A large group, with an encouraging number of people testing themselves on a 2* ride. All went according to plan, and we extended the route to include Stanford-in-the-Vale and Park Lane. 22 miles at an average speed of exactly 12mph. Thanks to everyone for good company and a great ride!
