There is a cafe at Horseshoe Lake but it has limited space inside but plenty of space with cover if required for the hardy outside (well it is popular with dog walkers and wild swimmers). We are planning lunch at The Bull at Riesley. Basingstoke Rd, Riseley, Reading RG7 1QL Route out is 25kM (15Miles). If we are running ahead/behind schedule I have some options to increase or reduce the route. We will need to confirm numbers and Menu choices by Friday 10 October.
