Saturday club ride : 31st August 2024

Here is a route for Saturday morning - some may notice it's a repost of last weeks ride that was washed out.

Although the roads should now be dry, the route is a short-ish, mostly flat track on usually good roads.

If there's a call for a cafe stop, there is an opportunity at the Uphill end on the way back.

Start time 8:30am, outside Priory School

Here is a route for Saturday morning - more in optimism than expectation, given the weather forecast.

The route is a short-ish, mostly flat track on usually good roads.

If there's a call for a cafe stop, there is an opportunity at the Uphill end on the way back.

If it's not actually raining around the 8:30am start time, we could give it a go. Otherwise it will be the pain cave again.

Nominal start time 8:30am, outside Priory School

Wednesday Club Ride : 14th August 2024

Here's a route for this Wednesday evening - hopefully it won't be too warm.

The route uses the new path to Kingston Seymour; I rode it tonight and much of the loose gravel has been washed off now so the surface is better. Still a few patches though, so take care on the corners.


6pm start at Priory this week.


The route goes back on the A370 through Hewish if anyone fancies a post pedalling pint at the Full Quart.
