Sunday Club Ride : 16th July 2023

By popular request, apparently, there was a call for a 100 mile club route.

Kev P has produced a likely candidate and it is proposed we will ride it this weekend.

Note. There will be a slightly earlier start to accommodate the extra distance.

Meet up at 8am at the Grand Pier, and 8:30 at Priory School

There should be a few opportunities for refuelling along the way, but I'd take something just in case it's further between nose bags than usual.

Also, please note that the route was produced with RideWithGPS and didn't import very well into Strava. I have tried to correct the Strava errors but be prepared for an updated route to be published. I would have thought the RwGPS route is correct if that works for you.

Wednesday Evening Club Ride : 12th July 2023

Courtesy of Kev P, here is the proposed route for this Wednesday's evening club ride.

Meet up at 6pm. Start point is the the southern end of the promenade. We have been meeting up at Revo but this route starts slightly to the south of that.

I will try to confirm the specific start point, but it is anticipate that it should be either Revo or the end of the prom.
