Fantastic day for the last pre-lockdown ride - chilly at first but windless and very comfortable in the sun. Group of seven (good to see Phil again) and thanks to Andy for leading a bubble. This was quite a laid-back ride as be-fitted the occasion and Andy's three racehorses needed some encouragement early on to move out of second gear, but Boars' Hill was quickly despatched followed by the descent of Bayworth Hill and we spent a very pleasant half hour in Abingdon Market Square consuming R&R's offerings. Peep O Day lane was empty except for a couple of joggers and the return journey passed without incident - in fact I don't recall any miscreant drivers during the whole ride. Phil dropped off at Denchworth as his car was at Grove, and the rest made it back to Wantage where most of us enjoyed a cake and a drink form Marmalade, as KAH was unfortunately closed!

Thank you everyone - these Wednesday day rides have been most enjoyable.
