An undulating ride this morning with my friend Susie. We had both done bits of this ride before, but forgotten it basically. Lots of lovely lanes and pretty villages. Within just a few minutes we dropped down a steep hill, which did not bode well! Then we undulated much of the way.
The route
A lovely tea stop about half way in Yattendon at a pretty store called The Pantry
Since it was just the two of us, got the chance to stop for a few photos along the way.
