Five started the ride and six finished it! These summer Tuesday rides are billed as leisurely but with a fresh Westerly wind the first half was pretty tough. Chris showed us an alternative route through the back streets of Lambourn before we tackled the headwind over to Ashbury. By the time we reached Shrivenham the sun was in evidence and the enclosed outside area at the rear of Bloomfields was an ideal spot for coffee and cake, and Louis was there waiting for us. The wind assistance on the return leg was very welcome and we were back in Wantage by 1330.

Another dry ride! (though a few more degrees of warmth would be nice). Thanks to Louis for the route. And sorry for the absence of photos.
