Mark Penfold has kindly offered to lead the first C ride of 2022! He's taking us to the coffee shop at Camelia Botnar garden centre, just south of Maplehurst. Reports say it's jolly yummy!
Coffee Shop | CB Garden Centre
His route will feature a 25 mile loop out, so please consider a cycling snack for your back pocket. Having recovered from the cycling and enjoyed the coffee, it should just be an 11 mile jaunt home.
This a "no-drop" ride within the C ride guidelines. This means nobody is left behind. We start off gently as everyone warms up, and the guideline average pace is around 14 mph. We aim to ride as a tight group except for the main hills, which we just make our way up at our own pace, and re-group at the top.
Please load the route to your device if possible, if not, just follow Mark! Please check the guidelines and risk assessments elsewhere on this site. Mark will collect names on the day for track and trace purposes. Route details to follow. If the Wheelers cold weather policy applies, we will update here and Facebook after 8pm on Friday evening. If not, see you on Saturday!
