The David Hetchings Memorial Ride

Saturday 12th December 2020 9:00am

Starting from - We meet by the Stocks and bus stop for Faringdon in the High Street . This gives us plenty of space to socially distance from other people who will be using the post office and other shops in the village There is free parking but please ride to the start if you can. If coming by car please reverse park into your slot. If you arrive early you can always grab a take away coffee at Bloomfields.
Please bring a face mask; you have to wear it on entering a café for takeaway coffe and in the event of first aid being required. For all our rides you should bring at least a spare inner tube and a pump. If your wheels are bolted on then a spanner that fits the nuts is also essential. Helmets are not compulsory but most definitely recommended. You should dress appropriately for the weather, and consider bringing your mobile phone along with cash or debit card for the coffee stop. Some café’s only take card payments.

David could be considered as a "founder member" of the Shrivenham Social Riders, he was certainly a lead in the e-bike revolution. This is one of the routes that David came on. Some of us will remember his comments when we couldn't keep up with his ebike, and then shouting at us when we went past when over the top of the hills. At the cafe stop there was always the "I'll tell you a story about......" and his awful jokes Join us on this ride for more memories of this lovely man.
