Hope everyone had a good Christmas and ready to burn up some of the excess calories on the last A ride of 2018.
Weather forecast is looking pretty good with only a 10% chance of rain and fairly light winds from the west. So plan is to head in a generally westerly direction heading on familiar roads up to Syresham, Culworth, Aston Le Walls and on to the climb at Fenny Compton. From there we head to Farnborough, Mollington, Cropredy and across to the coffee stop at Limes farm (Farthinghoe). From there a familiar route back to Buckingham via Evenly, Finmere etc. Total distance 55 miles and 1800 ft of ascent. Best have some food in your pocket as its 40 miles to the cafe.
As no doubt Christmas will have done some damage, expect a steady pace close to 16 mph. One climb at Fenny Compton but it's not too long or severe. As always no dropped riders.
Hope you can make it and please click the 'I'm attending' button if you are joining the ride.
Don't worry about formatting, just type in the text and we'll take care of making sense of it. We will auto-convert links, and if you put asterisks around words we will make them bold.
Tips:
Create headers by underlining text with ==== or ----
To *italicise* text put one asterisk each side of the word
To **bold** text put two asterisks each side of the word
Embed images by entering:  That's the hard one: exclamation, square brackets and then the URL to the image in brackets.
* Create lists by starting lines with asterisks
1. Create numbered lists by starting lines with a number and a dot
