Basingstoke - Town Centre - Back to Basics Starter ride!

This will be for an hour or so with optional extensions or short cuts depending on the group and aimed at those who want to get back on their bikes again in a safe and supportive environment - mostly on cycle paths and a short quiet road section of under a mile towards Old Basing. Here is an example of what's proposed: http://www.gmap-pedometer.com/?r=5973238 Exact route to be decided depending on the group but this is one for all - i.e. the aim is to get round in one piece having enjoyed it and gained some confidence - or just to be social! If you need to walk for a bit, you walk we wait. We'll take in War Memorial Park, Eastrop Park, Crabtree Plantation (but avoiding the hill unless you want to go up it!). Mountain bikes/hybrids/town bikes - the cycle paths are bumpy for racer/road bikes. We will leave as soon as the Park Runners are finished - this starts at 9am so be careful entering the park. Any queries, worries etc get in touch, Ruth (Emergency number for the day 07876 351561) [email protected]   http://www.facebook.com/breezingstoke http://www.twitter.com/breezingstoke
