Cafe ride - Basingstoke (Down Grange) to Overton

Meet in the car park at Down Grange Sports Ground, just inside the entrance from Pack Lane.

We'll go out through Oakley then ride briefly on the B3400 before turning off at the Beach Arms and following Harrow Way. There are a few ups and downs with one steepish hill before Overton but if necessary we will all regroup at the top. Retrace the route on the way back. Average moving pace 8 mph.

Please make sure you arrive so that you're ready to START the ride at 0945 with time before that for a chat about the route. If you're new to Breeze please arrive about 10 mins early so we can guide you through a bike check.

Any bike type is welcome so long as it’s in working order (though only use knobbly tyres if you know you can do the distance ok). Make sure your tyres are well inflated.

• Bring a spare inner tube that fits your wheels, tyre levers and pump (plus puncture repair kit if you have one).
• Also bring water and money / bike lock for café.
• Please wear clothing appropriate for the weather (layers work well when it's colder and waterproofs can help with windchill as well as rain).

All riders welcome but please note pace of ride.

NB - Autumn / winter rides subject to cancellation if conditions are likely to be slippery
