Sunday ride to Frilford and Abingdon

Sunday, 27 January 2013 - 9:30am

Ride report

The ISIS ladies joined us at the start and Ellen led us at a gentle pace. and in the face of a brisk south westerly, to coffee at Millett’s Farm. Six riders continued on to lunch, under a sunny blue sky as the breeze strengthened. Maintaining 10mph became quite an effort until we turned east after West Hanney when we found ourselves blown along at 20mph, almost without having to pedal. Nice to have lunch close to home on a winter ride and an excuse to enjoy a full Sunday roast.
