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.

Saturday Club Ride : 21st October 2023

There is still a question about the 'actual' weather that will turn up on Saturday morning, but at the time of posting this ride, it's suggesting a possibly dry but breezy ride, after a damp overnight period.

The route tries to avoid prolonged headwinds and also potential muddy roads. Although many roads around the area have the potential to turn out to be muddy in places; with farmers being busy harvesting, etc.

If you are able to bring the route on a Garmin, or similar device, navigating the figure of eight around Kenn Moor may be more obvious.

The route was created with Ride With GPS software that can inject some 'interesting' route choices. Hopefully these have all been removed, but be aware of their possible existence.

Meet up at 8:30am, outside Priory School

Note: The route doesn't seem to be displaying correcting on the webpage. The route should be good when downloaded.
