Weston Super Mare - 21st June 2025

Post by AlanW » 02 Nov 2024 21:22

Just putting the thought out there to see if there is any interest in a repeat weekend ride to Weston Super Mare on the weekend of 21st June 2025.

Exact same format as this year, conventional route to Weston avoiding as much of the A38 as possible and now including the new pier to pier section. Stopping in the Grosvenor Hotel on the sea front, four x two bedded rooms booked in advance then return the next day.

If we do the P2P section then it would mean quite a double back in order to do the Strawberry Line as well afraid, so its one or the other. As we haven't done the P2P section yet, it gets my vote

I'm potentially interested, Al, but can't commit until spring probably.
