Harlequin Hack	3*

Leader: Jo Little	Start Time: 9:30 am	Start Location: Thomas Hughes Memorial Hall Uffington
Description: This early season 100km Audax event was resurrected by our club a few years ago. It is now run by another club, but we like to support it. Although it is a standalone organised event, Jo and Eddie Little have kindly offered to lead a 'ride within a ride' for anyone who wants to join them. A modest excursion into the Cotswold hills followed by a gentle wander through the watery lanes of the upper Thames, the Evenlode and the Windrush. The ride starts and ends at the Thomas Hughes Memorial Hall in Uffington which has a village shop adjacent. Food and drink available at the start/finish and included in the entry fee. Pre-entry for this audax event is preferred. The cost is Ã‚Â£5.50 and can be completed online at Audax UK: http://www.aukweb.net/events/detail/17-101/
Riders: Eddie Little Jo Little Karl Blake Riders = 3 Report: A select group of 3 set out this morning from Uffington. The course was very scenic despite the weather which, unfortunately, got wetter throughout the day. We worked well together as a group and were pleased to improve on our time from last year. Thank you to Karl for letting Eddie and I practise our ride leading and navigating skills.
Distance: 110.00 km (68.35 mi)
