Saturday Club Ride : 25th February 2023

Saturday Club Ride : 18th February 2023

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

The weather is forecast to be dry, but a little on the breezy side.

There is the possibility of a café stop - either between Edingworth and Lympsham or at Bleadon. The first option is outdoor, so maybe not. The Bleadon option is has indoor seating, but I'm not sure how much. There may be outdoor seating but if it's too breezy, this may not be an option either. We'll suck it and see on the day.

Meet up at 8:30am, outside Priory School

Sunday Club Ride : 12th February 2023

Here is the proposed route for this Sunday's club group ride. Note; This may be a self navigated route, as there is not yet a designated ride leader. If anyone wants to take on this role, please contact the Secretary.

Meet up at 9am, outside Priory School.

Café stop programmed-in near Chew Valley Lake.

The route includes a descent of Brockley Combe. There is a little pavement shuffle on foot or at low speed to negotiate the traffic lights at the top of the combe. Not ideal but it removes the alternative of spending time on the A38 near the airport.
