Description: Please pre-book for this ride by contacting the ride leader. Easy sociable ride of 24-32 km (15-20 miles) at a pace of 14-17km/h (9-11 mph). Ride out to Stanford in the Vale, to meet up with the other group at the cafe. 20 miles / 32km
Riders: Angie Fisher Carin Tranter Diana Whidborne Geoff Neill Sarah Macaulay Riders = 5 Weather: Report: A beautiful sunny day for this ride out to Stanford in the Vale. We went up to Southmoor, after going via Denchworth and Lyford. We crossed the bridge over the A420 and took the road into Longworth. We took the track from Longworth to Hinton Waldrist past the beautiful Manor House. We emerged from Hinton Waldrist and back down the hill to the A420 again. We all successfully made it across the main road and down to Pusey and Gainfield where Sarah left us to get home as she had an afternoon commitment. We then carried on to Stanford. We had lovely coffee and cakes although the sunny weather brought out the wasps. The 2* group met us at the cafe and although we set off before them they overtook us on the way home. A very pleasant ride.
