2* Saturday Half Day Ride route amended	2*

Leader: Stephanie Haddrell	Start Time: 9:00 am	Start Location: OMH
Description: A ride out to Faringdon via Fernham, shortened route due to impending storms. Doing Tuesday nights ride which was cencelled due to rain! Please pre-book for this ride by contacting the ride leader. Half day ride (45-55km / 30-40 miles), with a tea stop, at a riding pace of 18-20km/h (11-13mph).
Riders: David Jackson Stephanie Haddrell Riders = 2 Report: With storms forecast from 11am I made the decision to change the route and do that planned for Tuesday night, which was cancelled due to rain. Barry decided to stay dry and watch the tour, so it was just David and I. We left just before 9 and headed out to Denchworth, and onto Goosey Baulking and Fernham. At this point rain looked imminent and it was black over Faringdon so we decided to head back via Shellingford, Hatford and Charney Bassett. A very pleasant ride with great company and staying dry until the homeward stretch along Denchworth road.
