With the weather warming up all next week Saturday looks a great day to ride with nice sunshine without being too uncomfortably hot with a minor breeze. Initially all three routes will head to Dilton Marsh via Crockerton and Warminster. The White Route heads through Longleat and will rejoin the other routes at Witham Friary. The Blues continue to Rudge, Beckington and back via Frome, whilst the Pink Route goes to Rode and Woolverton, and then back via Nunney. All routes finish at Cafe Corsa for a coffee and catch up.
Meet at 9.00 am at the Wheels car park, Station Road, Gillingham. Please ensure you download your chosen route to your GPS device, and remember to bring your ride essentials.
The Blue Group have recently often split into a ‘light’ and a ‘dark’ blue group, and there is nothing stopping other groups doing the same. All rides are no drop rides but please select a group suited to your ability!
Pink Route: 94.5 kms, 990 m elevation – est speed 28 kmh+ / 17.5 mph +
Blue Route: 84.5 kms, 902 m elevation – est speed 24 kmh / 15 mph
