Tuesday Evening 3* Ride	3*

Leader: Chris Walters	Start Time: 6:30 pm	Start Location: OMH
Description: Weekly 1.5 - 2 hours at a riding pace of 20-24km/h (13-15mph). Out via Lains Barn, Ardington, the Hendred Dip, Steventon and Charney Bassett. 34km with a few lumps. Lights recommended for the end of the ride.
Riders: Barry Farquhar Chris Walters David Smith David Talboys Janet Charleston John Talbot John Tranter Katherine Boyce Nicole Pethybridge Ursula Hallam Riders = 10 Weather: Report: Ten riders tonight - the weather looked threatening, and after a couple of stops for "equipment checks" we got out of Grove. Lains Barn and the Hendreds passed easily, with a few spots of rain but nothing to worry the group. The Steventon to Hanney stretch stead with a guy on a mountain bike passing us in Steventon. By Hanney, everyone had reeled him in and some had convincingly spat him out too. He had a rather red face at the A417 junction... A dashette into Grove finished the evening off nicely. Thanks to JT for sweeping, and putting his whistle to good use.
