More dry and sunny weather is forecast for Saturday! This week the routes head north east and east. The Pink and Blue routes work their way to the pretty Woodford valley, with the Blues returning along the Wylye valley whilst the Pink route heads to Larkhill and Shrewton before rejoing the Blue route at Sutton Veny. Both routes are slightly longer than usual.
The White route goes to Tisbury and Fonthill Bishop and back via West Knoyle and Mere.
The rides 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!
