Spring Evening Ride	2*

Leader: Adrian West	Start Time: 7:00 pm	Start Location: OMH
Description: Flat 2 ride in the Vale for 1.5 to 2 hours covering around 30-40km each week. We will not ride 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.
Riders: Adrian West David Talboys Des Higgs Tony Clark Riders = 4 Weather: Report: Another windy one! A strong quartet of riders battling through the wind to Stanford in the vale. A mechanical my end was sorted after a few minutes. We were doing a very good pace into the wind then we really opened up the throttle with the wind behind us from Stanford to Longworth. A cross wind made us work hard as we headed south through Southmore, Lyford and Denchworth, but it was all smiles as when we got back to OMH in time to chat with Robin and Richard at the end of their off road ride. A little faster than advertised, but all riders consented to working hard tonight. We only ride fast if all riders want to
Distance: 33.40 km (20.75 mi)
