Due to popular demand we are going to try adding a walking route to our regular cycle ride on Dec 6th. The route will be approx 7miles, and should take 1.5-2hrs to complete, so roughly the same time as the longer cycle routes.
We are also happy to run the shorter 7mile cycle route as well if wanted, although we may need to find a responsible volunteer to lead this ride.
The routes are all available from the events page as .jpg format as the Google Earth experiment didn’t seem to work so well. In each case if you click on the thumbnail it should show the full size image.

We’ve been experimenting with the best way to share the routes we’re planning to cycle on our regular rides. This time we’ve mapped them using Google Earth
- Unfortunately the attempt we made to map in Google Earth didn’t work – please see the routes available from the events page instead
Let us know if you’ve got suggestions on displaying the routes clearly.

We’ll be getting together for our next social practice cycle ride on Sunday Dec 6th, meeting at 10am at the clubhouse. This ride will be a reprise of the October routes, though only the 2 longer rides. The routes can be seen on the events page.
It is winter, so please dress appropriately for the weather, whatever that ends up being on Sunday. There are shower and changing facilities at the clubhouse and food and drinks will be available from the bar. All abilities very welcome and no special equipment is required.
Please note that all riders ride at their own risk.

We hope you’re looking forward to Sunday as much as we are.
Just a few updates and reminders …
For the Cycle Ride
- We are aiming to leave the clubhouse at 2pm, meeting from 1.30pm to enable a prompt start.
- There will be 2 rides this Sunday, not 3 as last time, one 10-15miles and the other 25-30miles. Maps will be available on the day
- We will aim to be back at the clubhouse before the light fails, but please bring lights with you if you have them just in case
- Please dress appropriately for the weather, whatever that ends up being on Sunday. A change of clothes may be a good idea.
- There are shower and changing facilities at the clubhouse and food will be available from the bar throughout the evening.
- Please note – if you join us you are cycling at your own risk.
We hope you will stay for the Celebration after the Cycle Ride, or come along just for the evening even if you can’t make the ride.
Starting at 5pm in the Clubhouse Hall, there will be updates on our plans and a raffle to raise some funds. From 7.30pm we will move into the bar for a few informal drinks and you are welcome to join us.
