Saturday afternoon ride from Grove	2*

Leader: Glen Savegar	Start Time: 1:00 pm	Start Location: OMH
Description: Monthly 45-55km (30 - 40 miles) afternoon ride, with a tea stop, at a riding pace of 18-20km/h (11-13mph). Not likely to be very hilly. Might be a struggle for new or irregular riders in winter months. This month we will head in an easterly direction taking in the villages leading to Aston Tirrold, followed by a tea stop at the Style Acre Tearoom Blewbury, or alternatively Chilton Garden Centre depending on numbers. One or two hills, but taken at a comfortable pace to suit the group! Route outline...OMH, Denchworth, Hanney, Steventon, Drayton, Sutton Courtenay, Appleford, North & South Moreton, Aston Tirrold, Blewbury (Tea), Chilton, Harwell Campus following the cycleway to Ginge, Ardington, Lockinge, Laines Barn, and OMH. (Approx 55 km) Update 28/6/14*- Due to roadworks between the Moreton villages, we will probably need to make a slight detour from the above route, with the option of calling for tea at Root 1 garden centre Brightwell cum Sotwell.
