Daytime 2* Thursday Ride	2*

Leader: Des Higgs	Start Time: 10:00 am	Start Location: OMH
Description: Please pre-book for this ride by contacting the ride leader. Sociable ride of 24-40 km (15-25 miles) at a pace of 18-20km/h (11-13 mph). Ride out to the Cantorist cafe in Childrey. Via Uffington and Fawler Hill.
Riders: Angie Fisher Barry Stanton Chris Marchant Des Higgs John Groves Joseph Marchant Karl Blake LeeAnn Norris Louise Bowers Peter Dalgliesh Richard Kidd Terry Ryland Riders = 12 Report: Another good turnout (weather influenced). Welcome to Joseph Marchant riding with us alongside his dad. A perfect day for cycling - sunshine with a gentle cooling breeze. We set off at a steady pace with everyone using their own road skills by leaving gaps where necessary - no problems, a very good and easy ride to lead. The only climb was Fawler Hill so some of the group took a hillier route back to Wantage after coffee in Childrey, the rest took the flat option. A very good ride in good company.
Distance: 40.00 km (24.85 mi)
