- We will ride via Croxley Green, Sarratt, Belsize, Flaunden, Chorleywood, Roughwood Ln, down Chalfont Ln to Maple Cross, Coppermill Ln up to Harefield, back down to Ricky. 1100ft ascent
https://ridewithgps.com/routes/34403435 - There are some sharp ascents and descents, so you need to be a competent cyclist, but we will take the hills at our own pace and regroup at the top. Nobody will get left behind.
- If the rain looks imminent then we won’t stop for a coffee until the end of the ride, back at the Aquadrome café (where the toilets are open), so bring a snack to eat during the ride. If the weather is fine and we feel like it, there is the possibility to have a coffee at Rootz at Chorleywood at 13 miles.
- Please bring a pump, credit card and at least 1 spare inner tube. I would prefer you to wear a helmet for your safety.
- If you are driving to the start there is free parking at the Aquadrome - come in along Frogmore Lane.
- You can take your bike anywhere on the Metropolitan Line anytime on weekends and off-peak Mon-Fri (peak hours are 7:30-9:30 and 16:00-19:00).

- Please check your bike thoroughly before you come. Check your brakes are working well, your gears are smooth and your tyres are in good condition and pumped up – you can use this video.
