I thought we might venture more north than we usually do. Not that far north, just to Portishead.

Sunday Club Ride : 2nd January 2022

Here is the proposed route for this Sunday. I may amend the route on Saturday. There is a stretch of road that may be a bit muddy on the way back. I will try to come up with an alternative to try to avoid excessive muddiness - as much as possible.

There may be an opportunity for a café stop at Farrington Gurney, although I'd need to check if it's open.

(Please note, the Secretary may be absent from this ride)

Meet up at 9am. outside Priory School.

Here is an alternative, possibly less muddy route, but anywhere can be muddy at this time of year.
