Here is the proposed for route for this Saturday's club ride.

Meet up at 8:30am, outside Priory School.

I had hoped to take us on a route towards Clevedon this week, but there's a lot of roadworks/road closures around that area. In fact we should be prepared to adjust our routes around Weston currently, as someone's found a pot of roadworks money.

Please note. We might have got a bit excited last week and we should remember than this is supposed to be an introductory, recovery, steady, development type ride. So, going forward, I will set a pace that everyone is comfortable with. If folks want to sprint up a slope or along a Strava segment, that's fine, but we should resist the temptation for the stronger riders to dominate proceedings. No one should feel they are holding the group back, as this isn't a thing.

It is a little up in the air whether their will be a ride this Sunday morning. The usual ride leader may not be available and as yet there hasn't been anyone volunteer to lead the ride.

Just in case club members would like suggestion for a route this week, here is something that takes into account the expected weather conditions.

The route is more in the nature of 'short and sharp' and is a little shorter than usual. But there is nothing to stop us from extending our ride afterwards.

Cafe stop near Chew Lake is possible.

Usual start time 9am, outside Priory School.

The weather is changeable to say the least at the moment, but Saturday is forecast to be breezy but dry.

Here is the proposed route for this week's Saturday morning club ride. The hope is to minimise headwinds and have a final leg back to Priory with the wind behind us. Let's see how that goes!

I had hoped to head towards Clevedon this week, but when I road the route earlier in the week, there were road works on the A370, two lots in Yatton and a road closure towards Nailsea, it may be better to try that route another week.

Meet up at 8:30 am, outside Priory School

The weather has been threatening to be damp all week, so it would be quite understandable if no one actually turns up. I'm not sure if there's any extra kudos for getting a soaking, but on the off-chance the weather isn't too bad, here is the proposed route;

Meet up at 8:30, outside Priory School.

A little late in posting, due to changeable weather, but here is the proposed route for this week's Sunday club ride.

Meet up at 9am, outside Priory School.

Café stop at Farrington, there's an expanded outside eating area operating at the moment.

The Saturday ride is run for a number of reasons; as an introductory ride, training ride, development ride, experience ride or even recovery ride.

The current weather forecast wouldn't really benefit anyone looking for the above.

Consequently, it looks unlikely that there will be a club ride this Saturday morning.

If the weather forecast suddenly improves and it looks appreciably better than currently, then I will post a ride no later than Friday evening. So, it may be worth checking back here if you notice an unexpected improvement in the forecast.

I think the Met office has now decided that the weather this Sunday is going to be OK, but don't quote me on that.
