Club Ride Wednesday 20th August 2014

Wednesday's club ride with riders curiously occupying the disabled bay in The Triangle

I don't usually blog the Wednesday evening ride, but with Howard and Andy Poolman on hand to take some photographs, I thought I'd write a few words to accompany the picture.

The Wednesday evening excursion is very often a bit of a dash around some of our favourite routes, but Tim H certainly rung the changes with this one, when he led us on a very scenic route over a course of around 23 miles, which encompassed some glorious unspoiled countryside north of Malmesbury. There were one or two hills thrown into the mix, which had the bottom gears grinding, but we finished with a flourish and managed to 'up' the mph a couple of notches.

With only a few lights spread among six riders, there was some concern that we might get caught out, but we needn't have worried, as we all arrived back in the light.
