2* Saturday Half Day Ride	2*

Leader: Des Higgs	Start Time: 1:00 pm	Start Location: OMH
Description: Half day ride (45-55km / 30-40 miles), with a tea stop, at a riding pace of 18-20km/h (11-13mph). Not likely to be very hilly. Might be a struggle for new or irregular riders in winter months. The reverse version of a ride I led in March. Out through the east Vale to Coleshill - a beautiful National Trust village with a great cafe. Just a couple of hills, but nothing too steep. 54km / 34 miles.
Riders: David Jackson Des Higgs Karl Blake Stephanie Haddrell Steve Swanton Susan Holdroyd Riders = 6 Report: A good group of well matched riders who all kept together at the top end of 2* pace, so the leader had an easy day with no problems at all! As usual the cafe at Coleshill was very good and so was the weather - we were able to sit out in the sun. Thanks to all!
Distance: 54.72 km (34.00 mi)
