A promising forecast for Saturday. Pink and Blue routes head over Zig Zag and through Cashmoor with the Pink route touching Cranborne and Verwood, and back through Witchampton and the Tarrant valley. The Blues avoid the extra Cranborne and Verwood section.
The White route heads to Blandford and Langton Long and also returns through the Tarrants.
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!
