********CANCELLED*******

Sorry Folks, the ride leader for this one has thrown a sicky - an informal ride may well still take place. So if you're planning to ride anyway, it might be worth a look.

This week’s “ad hoc” ride takes us up the Gorge over the top and down passed Chew Valley Lake for a coffee stop at New Manor Farm. Should be fun!

Meet up is outside the Grand Pier at 09:30. Everyone welcome, hope to see you there 😊

At a loose end Tuesday? Don’t waste it watching Hollie and Phil or Homes Under the Hammer, get that bike out and come along for a ride up to Portishead. The weathers not looking bad, “sunny spells and a gentle breeze” say the BBC at the time of writing, and there's the option of a coffee stop at Mokoko.

Meetup point is outside Priory school at 09:30 – everyone’s welcome.

#####NEW FOR AUTUMN 2022######## Ad-hoc Midweek Rides! – Starting Wednesday 12th October 09:30.

It’s amazing how many people seem to be out on their bikes during the week nowadays. Changed working practices, retirements and any number of other reasons mean that no matter what day you ride, you’re never alone. In recognition of that reality, the club is trialling the idea of Ad-hoc Midweek Rides. 

The rides will be ad-hoc” in the sense that they’re not scheduled, and may be run on any day of the week - most likely Tuesday, Wednesday or Thursday. There’ll also be a variety of start times and meet up points. It won’t be every week ( dependant on weather and the availability of a ride leader) but when there is a ride the plan is to publish it on the Saturday before.

We’re looking to have a good mix of routes, short and long, easy and hard, with and without coffee stops. It’s very much a work in progress which may morph into something else or nothing at all – we’ll see

Notice is a bit short for the first one, it’s this Wednesday morning! - sorry about that, but if you do fancy a ride down to Sweets Café, meet up outside the Grand Pier on the seafront at 09:30. Hope to see you there 😊

It’s the last of the regular Wednesday Evening rides this week, ufortunately ( I know, where did that season go! ). So how about a bit of Burrington Combe action?

It’s an open ride, so everyone’s welcome. See you outside Priory School at 18:00 ( and don’t forget your lights! )

After Draycott last week, something a little easier on the legs is planned for this Wednesday - a flattish ride out to Brent Knoll, with just enough bumps to keep us honest.

It’s an open ride which means everyone’s invited, so hopefully see you outside Priory School at 18:00 ( don’t forget your lights )

The Autumn is finally upon us folks, which in cycling terms means the start of the Hill Climb season. We may not have a competitive Hill Climb event for you, but what we do have is the annual pilgrimage to THAT hill. Yes, you know the one I’m talking about, the innocuously named “New Road” ….better and more descriptively known as “Draycott Steep”. Should be fun!

Once again it’s on open ride, so everyone’s welcome. See you outside Priory School at 18:00 ( don’t forget your lights! )

An easy pedalling 30 miler around Kingston Seymour and the moors of Kenn and Puxton this week. With autumn now upon us, there’s not many more of these Wednesday evening rides left - so don’t miss out!

Nothing too taxing this week: a nice easy loop out along the toll road and seafront, down to Mark, then back home via Chaple Allerton and Loxton.

It’s an open ride, so everyone’s welcome. Hopefully see you outside Priory School at 18:00.

A trip through the lanes to Wrington, and a steady climb up and around the back of the airport is planned this week. This route always seems to go down well, so why not come along this week. It’s an open ride, which means everyone’s welcome – see you outside Priory School at 18:00

The forecast for Wednesday evening could scarcely be better. Lovely and warm, sunny and next to no wind - let’s not waste it!

A pedal up through Kings Wood and back home through the lanes is the plan this week.

Once again it’s an open ride, so all are welcome. See you outside Priory School at 18:00
