Event info
C Ride, 13-14mph, 9am Crawley Library, Sat 3rd April
Its what you’ve been waiting for, the first C ride of the year... after a long pause the group riding fun can begin again! We can now legally cycle in larger groups which gives us more flexibility, if the group is too big we will split it on the day, as we always used to. No pre-booking needed, just turn up behind the Library at 8.45 for 9am, the Ride Captain will collect names on the day for track and trace purposes.
Ed Hall has kindly volunteered as Ride Captain for our first ride (thanks Ed!). His ride is short and undulating out to the Stable Tea Rooms at Heaven Farm, where a great takeaway menu awaits! Nice grounds with beautiful views and plenty of space for social distancing, but beware of the feral chickens. Please note the "Rule of 6" applies at the tea stop (but not when we're cycling) and masks are required to go in and order.

This is a no-drop ride, all welcome! We aim to ride as a group within the C ride guidelines, we're expecting a wide range of abilities after 4 months away, so if you've managed to keep fit, please be prepared to match your pace to the needs of the group! The exception is the main hill (Balcombe Lane) which we will ride at our own pace and regroup at the top, as usual.
Please help the ride leader by downloading the route to your device, if possible.
Weather looks dry, see you on Saturday!
