Tuesday 2* Evening Ride	2*

Leader: Karen Townsin	Start Time: 6:30 pm	Start Location: OMH
Description: After a couple of weeks heading for the hills in the South of our patch, I thought we'd go for a flatter ride this week, heading out to Uffington via Childrey and back through Fernham, Stanford-in-the-Vale and Denchworth. About 35km/21miles with a couple of gentle and short rises at East Challow and Westcot. There is a small section of bridleway, though this is well surfaced and easy to ride.
Riders: Bethany Tranter David Paine Gareth Smith Jo Little Karen Townsin Robert Treadgold (deceased) Sara Ward Susie Turnbull Tim Parr Val Smith Riders = 10 Weather: Report: An absolutely fantastic evening for a bike ride. Great views across the Vale and a gentle route that felt more down than up made for a very mellow ride. Susie took us on a cut through in Childrey that was new to me and Sara offered to sweep which made it a very relaxing ride for the leader too. Thanks everyone.
Distance: 35.00 km (21.75 mi)
