Jingle bells

This is a Christmas ride from Chandlers Ford to Brambridge Garden Centre which has great Christmas stuff and a lovely cafe. So bring some money! The route is suitable for both new and regular cyclists. Our pace will be fairly slow with stops to check everyone is OK. The route is circular and we’ll use mainly cycle paths and quiet lanes/roads, Any type of bike is suitable as long as it's in reasonable working order. It's a good idea to bring some water and you may also want to bring a snack. Please dress appropriately for the weather - layers are good. Better to be too hot and be able to remove a layer rather than be cold! Wearing a helmet is advisable, gloves too at this time of year. We really welcome newcomers to our rides. The rides are aimed to get you back on your bike again - whether it's months or years since you've ridden a bike - in a supportive atmosphere. We will always ride at the pace of the slowest rider so no one is left behind. Since it is our Christmas ride, you are encouraged to put some festive features on yourself and your bike - tinsel is great!! Look forward to seeing you there. If the weather is very wet or icy the ride may be cancelled, but a leader will make contact with you, and be at the start to advise accordingly.
