Report:A pleasant, if a little chilly when stood still,day. Brompton World Champs with Bridget Hickman in the field, 20k TT with Jan McCabe posting a good time on a technical course. Picnic was a good idea as although the burger wagons were less in number this year the available refreshments struggled with the numbers, The Italian Coffee Co. ran out of tea at about 2:20!! much to Mavis's chagrin as she had patiently queued for about 20 minutes. Next to nothing for the veggies again. Met up with members of Oxford City and West Oxon a very pleasant afternoon. | ||
