Tuesday evening 1* Ride	1*

Leader: Diana Whidborne	Start Time: 6:30 pm	Start Location: OMH
Description: Our leisurely and sociable 10-mile club rides are designed specifically with adult newcomers to cycling and youngsters in mind, or those who just want some relaxed and sociable exercise. We cover a distance of about 10 miles at a gentle pace of 8-10 mph, following quiet country lanes and the occasional easy off-road track. We stop regularly to catch our breath, to take in the views and anything that takes our interest along the way. This week we are going towards Wantage turning into chartlton Road picking up Route 44 to Lockinge, through estate and down to Ardington, Lains Barn, Hanney, Denchworth. If any body would like to stop at the Fox they can do or if you would like to go straight back to Grove i would be happy to ride back with you. Optional sociable stop at The Fox, Denchworth after the ride.
Riders: Carin Tranter Diana Whidborne Jason Hopkins Lewis Hopkins Lorna Swanton Martyn Wigmore Owen Hopkins Steve Boreham Riders = 8 Report: Very pleased the rain stopped, which made a enjoyable ride. We went from Lockinge to Ardington and straight down to Lains Barn,turning right to Hanney seeing the Motor cycle meet at the Volunteer. As we made our way from Hanney to Denchworth we met Steve S coming the other way riding out to join us at the Fox.
