Postponed.. Social and introductory ride, Sunday 12th, a D paced flat route of 38 miles

Post by Mick Stanford » 08 Jan 2025 18:09

This ride is now postponed until next Sunday, same place, same time.
I am leading a D Ride to Knowle with a stop at 22 miles at Elderberry Blacks Cafe. This is a fairly flat route so nice and easy going. 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 to the slowest rider which is usually between 10 and 13mph. The group will stay together so you will be looked after throughout, no one is left behind.

NOTE.
Depending on overnight temperatures on Saturday evening this ride may be changed to a drop in and ride or could be called off. Please check this post on Saturday afternoon.

Route is https://ridewithgps.com/routes/49304883

Sign up, turn up and have some fun 😁

think I will need to cancel this ride Simon, below freezing all day today and overnight, roads will be too icy.

What a shame but wise decision. I might try the canal path to The Exchange when and if it warms up. Was OK on Thursday.
