Wednesday Evening 3* Ride	3*

Leader: Sharon Bedford	Start Time: 6:30 pm	Start Location: OMH
Description: Weekly 1.5 - 2 hours at a riding pace of 20-24km/h (13-15mph). MOVED FROM TUESDAY DUE TO EXPECTED THUNDER AND HEAVY RAIN As the Boars Hill Ride is always a favorite - I am repeating the ride we did earlier in the season. Bring lights please - just in case we don't make it back before dusk.
Riders: Chris Bailey Clare Hazell Katherine Boyce Sharon Bedford Simon Atkin Riders = 5 Report: Postponing the ride by 24 hours meant that a few people sadly couldn't make it. On the other hand we did stay dry. For those that could make it, we had a lovely excursion to Boars Hill. Somewhat of a headwind on the way out - but it did mean cycling back was a joy. We just about made it back to Grove before dark, but for those of us who live a little further away lights were a necessity. Great group - who didn't really need any leading.
Distance: 50.00 km (31.07 mi)
