Please check website on the morning of the ride (particularly if you have forgotten to book) if the weather is poor as the ride may be cancelled. Coffee at Munch at the Log Cabin in Southmoor, out via Fyfield and return via Charney Bassett Des Higgs has kindly agreed to step in and lead this ride due to Roger being on the sick list......again!
Riders: Des Higgs Julie Haynes Lily Shepherd Terry Ryland Riders = 4 Report: I inherited this ride from Roger P, as he is not well - get better soon! We set off at a steady pace to Munch in Southmoor, trying to avoid as much standing water as possible - which we managed quite well. The 1* group was just leaving the cafe so we took their seats as the cafe was very busy - also very warm! An easy ride to lead with no problems with riders or machines, and also no rain at all. A very warm welcome to Lily, good to see new riders. Thank you one and all for an enjoyable ride with good company.
Distance: 30.00 km (18.64 mi)
