Saturday Club Ride : 2nd December 2023

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

Just the one incline to get us warmed up on the way back.

The weather forecast is dry, light winds and a bit on the chilly side.

As it has stayed dry for a few days, I would anticipate the published route being reasonably mud free - but who knows!

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

Sunday Club Ride : 19th November 2023

Here is a suggestion for this Sunday's club ride.

The weather, although forecast to be dry, is expected to be very windy.

The route tries to minimise extended headwinds and avoid muddy roads that might be expected after the recent wet weather - no promises though!

Avoiding headwinds does come with the potential for gusty sidewinds that can produce an 'interesting' ride.

Meet up at 9am, outside Priory School.
