Glasto this weekend – so all routes head over that way to the edge of the festival site !! All routes therefore head through Wincanton and Castle Cary on to Little Pennard where you might get a glimpse of the vast festival site and maybe hear some music. The whites then turn back on roughly the same route. The Pinks continue on to Glastonbury, before heading back via Somerton Podimore and South Cadbury, the Blues turn back via Lottisham and Lovington, then Sparkford and South Cadbury.
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!
