Saturday Club Ride : 18th May 2024

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

There is an option for a cafe stop towards the end of the ride.

But if you're in a hurry it's close enough to bail out.

Just a reminder that this is a beginner level ride.

As with all our rides, this is a no-drop event and no minimum speed is expected. The group will go at a pace that everyone can manage.

Meet up at 8:30am, outside Priory School or in town if preferred.

Saturday Club Ride : 11th May 2024

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

This will be a new route for a Saturday, but overall no more onerous than other routes around Kenn Moor.

There isn't a cafe stop planned, but we can 'suck it and see' on the day.
