Tuesday Evening 2* Ride A	2*

Leader: John Tranter	Start Time: 6:30 pm	Start Location: OMH
Description: This is a pre-bookable ride only. To book your place please text the ride leader no sooner than the Wednesday before the ride. Weekly 1.5 hour rides at a riding pace of 18-20km/h (11-13mph). Not likely to be very hilly. It is very exciting to be back in action! We will start gently in order to ease people back into group riding. A classic Vale loop via Denchworth, West Hanney, Southmoor and Charney Bassett. 16 miles and nice and easy.
Riders: Graham Butler John Tranter LeeAnn Norris Richard Ashford Riders = 4 Weather: Report: Goodness me. Blizzard conditions at the start did not inspire confidence. Much discussion between leaders before we decided to head out anyway and hope for the best. Actually, compared to the other groups we didn't do too badly. Bitterly cold, but only a couple of flurries and we were rewarded with a glorious sunset to finish the ride with. Great to welcome Graham on his first ride with us who remarkably still turned out and rode well. Also great to welcome Richard back after a few years away. Thanks for your company!
