My longest ride this year. It was quite hard for me even on Txiki. I only used the power when I really needed it. I even climbed the hill to Medstead with no power when on the way to the start. The weather was very mixed with a dull start, some drizzle and then later some sunshine. Simon was with me on his trusty Hetchins. He had a flat tyre in Swanmore, luckily we were right by Barnaby's Cafe, so we had coffee and cake whilst the tube was changed. Angela and Arthur joined us for coffee and we played leapfrog with a group of 5 ladies so we were never short of company. In Ropley the 5 went the wrong way so we gained a half mile on them which dissolved when Simon bonked on the hill up to Four Marks. Overall a great day!
