Riders: Andy Pixton Chris Bailey Graham Bergdahl Jane John Jerry Bird Joy Arthur LeeAnn Norris Robert Mulhall Sharon Bedford Simon Atkin Yvonne Bird Riders = 11 Weather: Report: A perfect late summer evening for the last Tuesday rides of the season. Welcome back to Robert for his second ride with the club. We split into two groups; thanks to Sharon for leading the second. After a nice flat warmup, we first climbed up to Kingston Lisle, then up to Sparsholt Firs from Sparsholt itself. This was enough to raise a sweat in the humid conditions, but a long cool descent back to Grove was enjoyed by those not finishing in Wantage. Thanks to all who turned out.
