Was it the carrot of a drink in the pub after the ride or the need for some exercise prior to the Christmas meal that enticed out seven riders on a very gloomy Christmas eve!! The ride was very straightforward with a few unplanned deviations, which included going down the new link road. The majority of the group used the very wide and smooth cycle way, a couple, who will remain unnamed, took it as an invitation to do a time trial!! We made it back to Wantage just before 12:00, surprisingly the majority of the group opted for a coffee at Marmalade as opposed to a drink at KAH, I think everyone wanted to pace themselves for their alcohol intake!! It was great to get out before the Christmas holiday and in the main a well disciplined riding group!!
Happy Christmas and hopefully see most of you in the New Year.
