Christmas ride to the Swan; 09:15 - Sunday 19th - RIDE CANCELLED - see below

Post by Si_Walker » 13 Dec 2021 20:58

I'll lead a ride to the Swan at Chaddersley for the riders Christmas gathering, with a stop at the Ginney Ring for coffee, on the way. Those wishing not to enter the pub are welcome to come along and find their own way home from that point using the route. Speed will be approx 14 mph, weather is forecast to be chilly early AM. Mudguards are preferred due to the mucky lanes, we don't all want to be pebble dashed!

Riders limited to 8 max please.

The route will be as follows;

Riders (8)

Si Walker (leading)
Si Turner
Matt Hale
Toby Hale
Richard Leaper
Ben Lowe
Euan Ross

Put me down for this Si.

I don't mind splitting off on another group if the numbers hit 8 or more.

Hello,

Unfortunately but not unexpectedly, the Christmas ride to The Swan has been cancelled by the Club due to the 'escalating seriousness' of the COVID situation (https://www.facebook.com/beaconrcc/). Therefore there seems little point in the ride going ahead, however you are welcome to use the route but it is with some sadness that I will not be now be leading the ride.
Seasonal best wishes to you all and hope that you get to enjoy Christmas.

Totally understandable. I had already decided that it was too risky and would keep away.
