Please note the previously advertised rides for 15th and 22nd May have been swapped around.

We will go through the Letcombes to Childrey, then Westcot. There will be a short ride along the Springline before going through Uffington, Goosey, Denchworth and then back to Grove. There are a couple of small climbs - Holborn Hill and at Wescot - but nothing major. As always they are to be taken at your own pace and we will wait for everyone.

Weather:
sunny
Report:
On a wonderful sunny evening a large group of 18 of us enjoyed a ride through the beautiful countyside. We split into 2 groups for some of the ride, and into four when going through Wantage.
Everything seemed to go smoothly - except when the ride leader misread her garmin. Apologies for that - I'm still learning!
Welcome to Will on his first ride and to Natalie on her second ride with the club.
Thank you to Karen for leading the second group and to Jon and John for sweeping and minding duties.
