Sunday ride to Witney and Freeland

Sunday, 19 February 2017 - 9:30am

The Coffee Shed in Witney – a new coffee venue.

Ride report

Despite warnings not to “tempt fate”, it proved impossible to resist feeling that at last spring was in the air. Four days later, Storm Doris arrived, seeming to prove that the naysayers were right after all. After coffee, we revelled in the quiet country lanes north of Witney.
