Riders: Carin Tranter David Bridge Des Higgs Diana Whidborne John Groves Karl Blake Martyn Wigmore Mavis Rose Roger Postbeschild Riders = 9 Weather: Report: Despite threatening weather to begin with, the sun did come out and we didn't get wet. From the early morning rain there was plenty of puddles (and mud ) about! We lost John for a while as he went via the roads rather than risk the tracks, but we met up again at the end of the track from Wantage Nelson pub to Lockinge. We arrived at the Grocer Chef in Ardington on time and most of us returned via Lains Barn. David and Martyn went straight back to Wantage along the track.
