Solstice Ride to the Swan Inn (Chaddesley Corbett) Sunday 20th June, 09:15 start

Post by Matt Hale » 15 Jun 2021 17:11

I will lead a ride to the Swann Inn, Chaddesley Corbett. This has been posted on Facebook by Tony Webb and is to replace the Christmas ride that was postponed for obvious reasons. Leaving the Black Horse at 09:15

I'm planning to have a 'breakfast' stop at Wolverley, so max of 8 riders (We might be able to increase this to 12 if we sit outside, or split into 2 groups but the weather is not looking the best).

Route will be something like this: https://ridewithgps.com/routes/36431471

Riders:

Matt Hale (L)
Toby Hale
Harri Evans
George Garvie
Neil Orchard

What sort of time are you aiming to be at the swan inn?

Planning a longer C ride and would be nice to cross paths at the pub!

5 of us started in the gloom dressed more in winter gear than summer gear., However George G's chain snapped before we'd got to Belbroughton. Unfortunately that was the end of the ride for George. We made it to Gil's in Wolverly as it started to warm up and the new decor and menu was well received by all (we're all converted to waffles and bacon :D ). Heading back to Chaddesley, the level crossing at Hartledon was out of use for all, with some track work and replacement sleepers being installed. There was a large crew on site and looked to be on a tight schedule, so no chance of us getting through. We diverted on the A roads and made it to the Swan for 1pm. Was good to see some familiar faces
