10 Mile Club 1*	1*

Leader: Nicole Pethybridge	Start Time: 6:30 pm	Start Location: OMH
Description: Our leisurely and sociable 10-mile club rides are designed specifically with adult newcomers to cycling and youngsters in mind, or those who just want some relaxed and sociable exercise. We cover a distance of about 10 miles at a gentle pace of 8-10 mph, following quiet country lanes and the occasional easy off-road track. We stop regularly to catch our breath, to take in the views and anything that takes our interest along the way. We will be heading out towards Denchworth, up to Charney Bassett and back via West Hanney. A leisurely pace with plenty of rest when needed.
Riders: Barbara Lambers Ben Paine Brian Hipwell David Paine Edith Hipwell Ellie Paine Jon Townsin Lorna Swanton Nicole Pethybridge Steve Swanton Riders = 10 Weather: Report: The weather was kinder to us than expected and stayed sunny with a light breeze as 10 of us headed for a saucepan shaped ride around the local lanes. Everyone kept up a good settled pace and I was entertained by the world of Ben discussing sports and coding of fantasy games and castles, something I miss now my boy is much taller than me. A happy ride with happy cyclists -thank you
Distance: 18.10 km (11.25 mi)
