Isis Cyclists (Rides for Women) will lead to coffee, after which we head north up one of Brill’s easier climbs.
Ride report
A cold and sunny morning saw quite a gathering at Broad Street, so we split into 2 groups for the ride to coffee. Although there was no ice to worry about, we nevertheless avoided a potentially muddy Barrack’s Lane. We also avoided the first section of the Gidley Way climb, as we made our way to Waterperry. Six continued after coffee, but only 2 had time for stop for lunch at The Eight Bells in Long Crendon, where they even had gluten free bread to accompany the soup.
