RIDE FULL Introductory Ride - May 1st meeting 9.00am

[Rich_Chaplin]

On Sunday 1 May Mariana and I will be leading the May Intro Ride to The Espresso Farm Cafe at Umberslade Farm. Meeting at the The Black Horse pub car park, Northfield, B312QT at 09:00am for a quick pre-ride briefing ahead of a 09:15 departure.

The route is around 35 miles (56km) on minor roads as far as possible, over gently rolling terrain.

The pace will be of the slowest rider, which is usually between 10-13mph (13-21kph). You will be looked after throughout the ride. No one is dropped.
Route is via Packwood House and can be found here: https://ridewithgps.com/routes/38684815

Go for it, post you name, message and join us for a great sociable ride out and chat about joining the club or any questions you may have.

Hi Phil, I am happy to take another as we could always split into 2 groups with Mariana and Helen on the run too. I'll add Romina to the list.

Good morning, I’m so sorry for the late notice but I’m going to have to bow out of this run as my bike has developed a mysterious and recurring **flat** - been trying to sort it since 7 but no luck!
