I will be lead a D run to Hartlebury, stopping at 22 miles at Whitlenge Garden Centre Cafe. 9.15am start from The Black Horse car park, Northfield.

This is a perfect introductory ride for those wishing to try out the club, riders returning from injury or illness, or if you just fancy a nice steady, relaxed and chatty ride out.

Pace will be around 12 to 13mph The group will stay together so you will be looked after throughout, no one is left behind.

I am new to the area and wanting to try out the club.
Just a few silly questions
1. How long does it usually take?
2. Can I give it a miss if it rains?
3. Is there anything I need to bring?

Thank you in advance for your help

Hi Pak

You are most welcome to join this ride to try out the club, it will be great to have you ride alo g with us.
1. This ride will take around 3½ hours, this includes the cafe stop.
2. Yes, you can give the ride a miss if raining, it looks like it will be a lovely day Sunday though.
3. The main things to bring are a spare inner tube, water and a snack in case you do need that extra bit of energy.

Hope to see you Sunday.

Mick
