Six of us left Wantage for our zig-zag tacking out to Shrivenham. Faringdon was traversed using some roads less travelled, and roads rarely-travelled-in-that-direction.

Bloomfields was excellent as ever, with the bonus of John joining us for coffee and a tow home.

The tailwind made for a very sociable return, and I have to say that the group riding skills on display were excellent today! The only sour point was the beer in Alfies afterwards - 3 village idiots supped their Village Idiot which was rather unpleasant by all accounts.
