This is an easy-going ride, approximately 8 miles along mainly quieter country lanes; with one short section on a faster 50 mph road. We will spend a short while at Redbournbury Mill, to give everyone time to look around the old flour mill, enjoy a drink and to eat Hot Cross Buns. This watermill still produces flour, which is used to make the lovely bread and cakes that will be on sale. Remember to bring a small rucksack if you plan to buy any of the bread or cakes etc. Payment is by card only at the moment.
We will ride at the pace that is best suited to everyone in the group, usually between 7 - 9 mph. There will be a few hills where we will of course wait for the group to catch up. As leaders we will ensure that no one is left behind, so that all the group can have an enjoyable ride.
If you have any questions please message Kathy on 07547914328


Please remember to bring,
Two spare inner tubes for your bike, even if you do not know how to change them, someone in the group will, as well as the appropriate tools (tyre levers)
A water bottle with a drink in, riding can be very thirsty work.
Cycle helmet, for your own safety.
Appropriate clothing for the weather
Money if you wish to purchase bread/cake from the water mill
Rucksack (small) for any cake/bread you might purchase)
As we will be riding on the road please consider adding lights to your bike and wearing high vis clothing to assist other road users to see you.

Now for the Covid bit…..
Although Covid restrictions have been lifted we are asking all riders to be respectful to other riders. Please do not attend if you have Covid symptoms or have been in contact with other people that have Covid.
