Tuesday Evening 2* Ride	2*

Leader: Karen Townsin	Start Time: 6:30 pm	Start Location: OMH
Description: Weekly 1.5 hour rides at a riding pace of 18-20km/h (11-13mph). Not likely to be very hilly. *LOWER BRIDGING RIDE* This is the first of our Bridging Ride series designed to help those who would like to progress to the next level of cycling. As such it will be ridden at the lower end of the pace range. Weekly 1.5 hour rides at a riding pace of 18-20km/h (11-13mph). Not likely to be very hilly. We'll head East on a familiar route through Lockinge to East Hendred, then onto Featherbead Lane, Steventon and back to Grove via Hanney and Denchworth. There is a small amount of gravel track which is easily accomplished, even on my 23mm tyres. Please bring lights.
Riders: Des Higgs John Tranter Jon Townsin Karen Townsin Val Smith Riders = 5 Weather: Report: Well despite the ropey forecast, it was great cycling weather. In fact we all had to stop in West Ginge to take off waterproofs because we were roasting. A lovely ride with strong riders, so the average pace stayed within 2* limits, rather than set at the lower end. Thanks everyone
