Oxford City Centre
Really friendly shop to rent a road bike and get some advice on routes. David helped me get set up.  Call ahead to make sure they have a bike that works for you.  From here I did about 50 mile RT to Henley.  I posted some related photos from different points along the ride.  Have fun!
