Tuesday Evening 1* Ride	1*

Leader: Carin Tranter	Start Time: 6:30 pm	Start Location: OMH
Description: This is a pre-bookable ride. Please book your place by texting the ride leader no sooner than the Wednesday before the ride (don't forget to include your name). Our leisurely and sociable Tuesday evening 1* 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 10-15 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.
Riders: Carin Tranter Diana Whidborne Hilary Evans Martyn Wigmore Tim Waite Riders = 5 Report: This was a good ride with 5 riders. We went up to Southmoor via Lyford and back down through Charney Bassett to Denchworth and Grove. We stopped for a while to chat to the sows and piglets at the top of the hill out of Southmoor before heading down to Charney. We heard a lot of grunts and squeals in reply!!
Distance: 22.85 km (14.20 mi)
