Tuesday Evening 2* Ride	2*

Leader: John Tranter	Start Time: 6:30 pm	Start Location: OMH
Description: Weekly 1.5 hour rides at a riding pace of 18-20km/h (11-13mph). Not likely to be very hilly. This ride will be in the MIDDLE of the grade. A nice loop around the west Vale tonight. Out via Denchworth and up the small hill through West Challow before cutting across to Childrey, Sparsholt and Westcot. Then to Kingston Lisle, down the exciting Fawler Hill to Uffington and an extra loop to celebrate the opening of the railway bridge near Baulking before the usual Goosey route home. 22 miles / 35km.
Riders: Adrian West Brian Hipwell Carin Tranter Des Higgs John Tranter Mila Yearley Roger Postbeschild Steve Joyce Riders = 8 Weather: Report: A bit more of a nagging headwind than we were expecting heading out west meant that we struggled a bit and decided to shorten the route home. The bonus was the lovely swoop down Kingston Lisle Hill. There were some threatening clouds around but it turned out to be a rather glorious evening with lovely views around the Vale. Thanks to all for a good ride.
