Autumn Evening Ride	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 quite 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. On the first Tuesday of every month 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: Chris Walters Dave Martin David Talboys Des Higgs John Tranter Maurice Bawden Riders = 6 Weather: Report: Must be getting colder - only 6 riders tonight. Very evenly matched, so we rode at a comfortable pace and the unforecast wind became a challenge at times (at least for those on the front). Maurice peeled off before the end, and the Famous Five had a very nice scoff, drink and natter at the Fox.
Distance: 33.80 km (21.00 mi)	Ride Details: http://www.strava.com/activities/93434863/
