Upper Wargrave to Fingest & Frieth

After a dull overcast morning I set off to Wargrave more in hope than expectation. However by the time I started cycling the sun was out and the Autumn colours were really in full swing. The locations enroute were very familiar territory, but the light and seasonal colours made photographing them a must. I deliberately stayed out for the sunset to capture the scene as I crossed the Thames and headed up Remenham Hill back to Wargrave.

Kintbury to Crofton & Hungerford

We did a 26 mile circuit around West Berkshire, starting at Kintbury and straying into Wiltshire. At one point the signs were suggesting we were only 12 miles from Andover, which I found hard to believe.

The Crown & Garter at Inkpen. Time for Tea and cake and only 2.5 miles into our ride!

The beam engine at Crofton. This was a steam day, where the boilers were powered up and a BBQ and local beers were on offer.
