Good calm day and not too cold (once all the layers had been put on). 15 riders turned up for a pleasant warm up on the flat through Grove, Denchworth, Baulking, Uffington to Shrivenham.

We took the challenge of Ashbury hill on and then enjoyed the downhill into Lambourn. It was a bit of a squeeze at coffee, but we all managed to get a drink and something to eat. Off for the second biggish hill of the day and then downhill all the way back to Wantage.

Thanks to Terry for sweeping and thanks to good fortune for no punctures and no mechanicals, all in all a good ride.
