Sunday ride to Faringdon and Uffington

Sunday, 1 June 2014 - 9:00am

Note: early start 9am

Ride report

The cobbled court yard of The Old Crown Inn makes a picturesque backdrop for coffee – but make sure you phone first so they can get the pastries in. We did and ate them all. Abingdon Freewheelers, who arrived 20 minutes later, didn’t and had to make do with scraps. Eleven opted for lunch at The Fox and Hounds with zero takers for the sprint up White Horse Hill.
