Starting on Kings Lane South Heath were there is plenty of parking. We will cycle to the Lee and then cross on bridleways and country lanes to Chesham before the climb back up the Hyde Heath were we will meet the Breeze ladies from Amersham for a quick drink at The Plough pub. Hopefully it will be a nice evening so we can sit out on the common and have a catch up. From Hyde Heath we'll head back through the woods to South Heath. We will ride at a steady pace of about 8 mph. The off road isn't too challenging so should be fine for hybrid, gravel and mountain bike but not for road bikes.

Please check your bike is in good working order, preferably the day before the ride and that the tyres are pumped up. Check out this video for how to check your bike:

You need to wear a helmet to join my rides and the following are useful things to bring along: spare inner tube and tyre levers, a bottle of water, some money/card for a drink at the pub. Keep an eye on the weather and dress appropriately. If the weather is particularly bad I will take a view on whether it will be safe and enjoyable to go and contact you via the British Cycling website. Please make sure you have put your mobile phone number on your profile.

Off Road ride to The Plough at Hyde Heath

We'll keep off road as much as we can but there will be some stretches of tarmac and traffic.

We especially welcome newbies!
