Ride report
This first cold winter ride, just a few degrees the right side of freezing, didn’t put off our riders who were rewarded with an excellent route north via the 3 Aston villages and then to a favourite pub for lunch in Great Tew. Ninety kilometres is quite a long ride for this time of year, so we decided to take a short cut home from Wootton via Woodstock. Thirteen at the start, with 3 more for lunch, is a healthy start for the winter season and we managed to capture what we have named “The Valentine’s Day tree” (see photo).
