After last weeks washout here's hoping Sunday will be good to go. The weather forecast is not looking to bad, light drizzle with a gentle breeze from the south. With this in mind have opted to use last weeks cancelled route so the ride home should be assisted by the elements.
The ride is a 50-mile loop to the Rectory Cafe, Stanton St John stopping at mile-27 for a cuppa and a chat.
It is that time of the year where fitted mudguards are preferred, please, especially with the amount of mud on the road of late.
Apart from that, usual rules apply, if you are out to play please tap the 'I'm Attending' button and enjoy the ride. Go on you know you want to, use the opportunity to earn your mince pie!!!

Firstly the weather forecast is not looking great for this Sunday, with gusty winds and rain, fingers crossed we get away with it. Will make a final decision if the ride goes ahead, on Saturday.
The ride is a 50-mile loop to the Rectory Cafe, Stanton St John which, if nothing else we will benefit from the strong winds from the South-West.

This Sunday's B Ride is heading up to Barn Farm Plants Garden Centre, Wardington. So say a slightly undulating ride out to the cafe travelling through the South Northants countryside. Thereafter, the trip home should be wind assisted from the gentle breeze from the West.
Total distance is just shy of 50-miles, which includes an optional Gawcott to Preston Bissett loop.
Fancy it, go on you know you want to ................ then please tap the 'I'm Attending' button.
See you on Sunday morning at 08:45hrs for a 09:00hrs depart.

So, this week we have a 24-mile loop, stopping at mile-14 at the Twyford Community Cafe.
The route is Gawcott, Chetwode, Stratton Audley, Marsh Gibbon, Poundon & Twyford. Then once fully refreshed a short ride home via Steeple Claydon & Lenborough.
Generally a flattish route, at a gentle pootle to suit the group.
The weather forecast is predicting a chance of light rain light wind from the West.
You'll need to wear a cycle helmet, carry a spare inner tube and mobile phone and payment for the cafe stop.

This weeks B ride is a loop to the Rectory Cafe, Stanton St John, where if the timing is right, you'll meet up with the A riders. The route is just shy of 50-miles on what is forecast to be a reasonable morning weather-wise, misty and a light wind from the South.
It is that time of the year where fitted mudguards are preferred, especially with the amount of mud on the road of late.
I am unable to ride on Sunday, so looking for a volunteer Ride Leader, up for it? Then please make it known.Apart from that, usual rules apply, if you are out to play please tap the 'I'm Attending' button and enjoy the ride.

This week we have a 24-mile loop, stopping at mile-15 at the Thrift Farm Cafe to meet up with the C Group for a chinwag & coffee.
The route is Maids Morton [sorry bit of a climb!!], Thornton, Beachampton, Nash & Whaddon. Then once fully refreshed a short ride home via Nash [again] Thornborough, Padbury & Home via the Cycle Path.
There is a little bit of undulation on this route as we ride at a gentle pootle. The weather forecast is looking good, a tad fresh, sunny intervals with a light wind from the North East.
You'll need to wear a cycle helmet, carry a spare inner tube and mobile phone and payment for the cafe stop.

Mark, thank you, if you lead the group I will be your Lattern Rouge. I will bring the ICE details with me.

I have tried to contact Limes Farm, but no response. Will leave route as is, if they are closed can always drop into The Forge @ Evenley at mile-28
-
Mark, thank you. I will give them a call tomorrow to confirm

Chris, got 115 views at time of posting this message, see you Sunday

Keith, enjoy Mallorca, hope to see you on the Leisure next Sunday

Have opted for a 41-mile B Ride to Limes Farm this Sunday. The adventure takes through Gawcott, Chetwode, Croughton, Charlton then onto Farthinghoe. After the cafe it's a delightful spin down the straight to Evenley aided by a gentle tail-wind. Then it's just Mixbury & Westbury before arriving home for a quick jar in the Woolpack.
The weather conditions are looking particular good for the time of year, sunny intervals with a gentle breeze from the North-West.
Don't forget the clocks go back an hour on Saturday night, so enjoy your extra sleep!!
Will need a ride leader for this one, a willing volunteer is warmly welcomed.
Up for the Ride? Then please tap the 'I'm Attending' button and I will catch up at the Pool on Sunday at 08:45 hrs for a 09:00hrs depart.Stewart

OK before we start on the ride please don't forget that the clocks go back on Saturday night so an extra hour in bed to enjoy, yeah!! As a result, the added bonus is that you'll have more energy to burn on the Leisure ride.

Up for a leisurely 23-mile pootle this Sunday? Why not join me for the ride and coffee stop at The Forge, Whittlebury. We ride together at whatever pace suits the group, so feel free to invite people you know that may be interested.
Just need you to carry a mobile phone and spare inner tube, wear a cycle helmet and means of payment for the cafe.
The weather forecast is looking nice & fresh, sunny intervals with a light breeze from the north-west, sounds ideal.
