The Beacon Message Board

I'm planning on going to watch the women's tour on 5th October. It starts and finishes in Walsall, with 9 laps of Barr Beacon.

Please put your name down if your interested in riding out to watch.

We aim to get to Barr Beacon at around 11:30

Riders so far

Simon Woodward
Matt Hale
Helen Jamieson

Route will be something like this - https://ridewithgps.com/routes/37690492

I'll join you Si - should see the new Paris Roubaix winner! I reckon Bridle Lane QOM point will be a good point to watch

Is this an official club runs or would you allow me to join with my the 'rest bars' on the handle bar of my bike ?

With fb down, you might not have seen my reply! I’ll try cycle it. What time you passing bearwood?

Cedric, we'll be riding over as a group so TT bars wouldn't be suitable for a group ride

We'd be happy to see you there if you want to ride over and meet us.

Helen, as you've guessed, I can't see your FB post. We'll be leaving Bearwood at 10:30.

We'll meet you at the junction of Rathbone Road & Stanhope Road

I'll bring a pannier in case people want to bring extra layers of warm clothing!

Cool. I’ll be on the commuter as it has mudguards!!
