Breezing from CSG to Beaconsfield

- We will cycle on delightful country lanes to Beaconsfield for coffee/snacks via this route https://ridewithgps.com/routes/46230505 then come back via this route https://ridewithgps.com/routes/46230752
- If there’s time, we can also have post-ride coffee/snacks at The Deli in CSG.
- Please bring the usual (pump, inner tubes, etc). I would prefer you to wear a helmet for your safety.
- Even though the ride is short, there are some tough hills and steep descents, so you need to be a competent rider. But we will regroup at the top of every hill and nobody will be left behind.
- If you are driving, there is a pay and display behind the Co-op or free parking on the roads around the village green e.g. Bowstridge Lane HP8 4QJ.
- If coming by tube you can take the Metropolitan Line to the Chalfont & Latimer station at Little Chalfont and cycle 2 miles to the start (best via Burtons Ln and Roughwood Ln) e.g depart Harrow on the Hill at 9:41, or Northwood Hills 9:49, arrive at C&L at 10:06, £2.20. Or for the same price you can take Chiltern Rail (e.g. depart Harrow at 9:39 on the Chiltern Line arriving Chalfont & Latimer station at 9:58).
- You can take your bike anywhere on the Metropolitan Line off-peak (peak hours are Mon-Fri 7:30-9:30 and 16:00-19:00). For info see https://tfl.gov.uk/modes/cycling/cycles-on-public-transport
- You can take your bike on Chiltern Rail nearly any time of day – see https://www.chilternrailways.co.uk/customer-service/travelling-your-bike
- 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
- I can’t see who is on the waitlist, so if you are on it, send me a message via the “message ride creator” button, with your phone number, and I will see whether I can make another space (you need to be logged in to the Let’s Ride website to see the button)
- There are public toilets at CSG and Little Chalfont.
- If you have any questions don’t hesitate to message me.
