Tuesday 2* Evening Ride	2*

Leader: John Tranter	Start Time: 6:30 pm	Start Location: OMH
Description: This week I am throwing a couple of very minor climbs. We go west through the Letcombes, Childrey and Westcot before a short section on the spring line road to Kingston Lisle. Then home via a lovely descent to Uffington, Goosey and Denchworth. There are two smallish climbs up Holborn Hill and out of Westcot. Please bring lights with you. 20 miles / 32km
Riders: Bethany Tranter Brian Hipwell David Paine Des Higgs Ellie Paine John Culverwell John Groves John Tranter Robert Treadgold (deceased) Roger Postbeschild Steve Boreham Riders = 11 Weather: Report: Beautiful weather as it turned out, and a good group keen to test themselves against the relatively modest climb of Holborn Hill. All did well, although Brian sadly succumbed to a slow puncture before we got there. Great scenery all the way around, and thanks to all for your company - nice ride!
Distance: 32.19 km (20.00 mi)	Ride Details: https://ridewithgps.com/trips/14466487
