A loop out through the Vale to the west, via Goosey and Uffington, with a tasty little climb and descent at Compton Beauchamp. Then we run home via Shellingford and Park Lane. 26 miles / 42km.
Riders: David Bridge David Talboys Eddie Little Jacquie Boshell James Bosley Jan McCabe Jane John John Groves John Tranter Jon Townsin Joy Arthur Julie Haynes Karen Townsin Mike Cooke Nick Dunton Paul Bentley Phillip Folkes Roger Turnbull Sharon Bedford Yvonne Bird Riders = 20 Weather: Report: Apologies from Nicole, who was struck down by a bug - get well soon! It was a beautiful evening and a very large and enthusiastic group gathered. As has become the norm this season, we split into two groups - thanks to Jon and Karen for managing the second group and also thanks to Nick for sweeping the first. A nagging headwind on the way out the hill, a good strong climb from everyone, a glorious descent and then a super-powered tailwind return to Grove. Great fun, glorious weather and wonderful company!
