The sun is forecast to shine, so remember the suncream! The Blue and Pink routes head north through Wincanton, Bruton and Evercreech and on towards Stoke St Michael. The Blue route then turns east to Mells and returns through Nunney and over Gare Hill. The Pink route continues almost to Midsomer Norton and does a loop around Vobster, rejoining the Blue route at Nunney.
The White route heads to Wincanton, Bruton, Ditcheat and Pylle then east to Upton Noble, Kilmington and Mere.
The rides all end at the Old Brewery Cafe and Kitchen for coffee, cake, or brunch.
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, particularly sufficient liquid refreshement.
There is nothing to stop a group splitting into a ‘light’ and a ‘dark’ group, and a slower group can take on a longer route or a faster group ride a shorter route. All rides are no drop rides but please select a group suited to your ability!
