3. A road worthy bike,
4. A spare inner tube, pump and tyre levers

6. Comfortable clothes appropriate for the weather,
7. A drink & snack for along the way if needed.
We will ride taking social distancing into account. At the time of writing British Cycling recommend riding at least 1m apart
Please do not attend the ride if you have Covid-19 symptoms, have someone in your household who does or have tested positive on a recent Covid 19 test. Cancelling your place won’t be a problem just let us know before the ride so we are not waiting unnecessarily for you, especially if it’s raining.
