Amersham Breeze - New Year's Day Spin

First ride of the year! Come and get a bit of fresh air, blow the cobwebs away and join us on a cycle around the Chiltern lanes. No coffee stop planned but a lovely ride around the countryside.

As always, your bike must be in good working order, bring a spare inner tube and pump, working lights as well as money and lock for when we stop.

Checklist of things to bring:
Helmet
Mudguards (especially the rear wheel) https://bit.ly/3BEhVSE - these are good mudguards
Rear Light
2 tubes (1 if tubeless)
Pump/gas canister
Rainwear/gilet (worn or in your pocket/bike bag)
Layers are good for this time of the year
Water bottle
Face covering

Please have a good check over your bike the day before the ride to make sure it is road worthy. British Cycling have put together a handy video for checking your bike before a ride - How to check your bike - British Cycling's M Check

Please take a minute to look at British Cycling’s guidance regarding cycling and COVID-19:

I expect participants to take responsibility for ensuring they are well and not coming on the ride if they display signs of COVID-19. British Cycling are keen for group cycling to continue in the most socially distanced way possible. You can wear a mask if you feel it is appropriate. Ultimately, only you can decide if you feel safe from the risks of COVID-19 to ride at this time.
