Sunday ride to Bicester and Ludgershall

Sunday, 4 December 2016 - 9:30am

Note change of lunch venue – now Bull and Butcher in Ludgershall

Ride report

Nineteen for coffee was more than expected on this cold Sunday morning. Not as cold as it had been earlier in the week, but cold enough to temporarily freeze one rider’s gear cable, locking the chain onto the big ring on the cassette. Good for low cadence practice, but not for much else.
