The final Saturday in October sees the Pink and Blue routes head to Yetminster, and for those wanting mid ride coffee and cake the Old Schoolhouse Cafe is open. The White route heads to The Round Chimneys Farm Shop and Cafe via Stallbridge, Bishops and Stourton Caundles returning via Kings Stag and Sturminster Newton.
At the moment the forecasts I’ve seen are undecided so fingers crossed its going to be dry.
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 refreshments.
