Maltby Roche Abbey Circular

Meeting at 10.45am at Maltby Leisure Centre to set off at 11.00am. Its a very scenic ride through the villages surrounding the southern part of Maltby, taking in beautiful countryside and plenty of quiet lanes. There's a fun off road section that you'll definitely get muddy on, and probably wet feet too. Cafe stop is at Hatfield Arms in Laughton En Le Morthen, though on Sunday only food they do is Sunday dinner, whilst for a spot of culture we will be calling in at Roche Abbey to look at the ruins. The ride concludes with a visit to the Queens Hotel in Maltby (nice cheap food). In all its 13.5 miles, with some bits that will put colour in your cheeks, and others that'll put wind beneath your wings. Here's the route for you on both Map My Ride & Google just in case you want to download it. http://www.mapmyride.com/routes/view/581965560 https://goo.gl/maps/UjFfA Make sure you wear your helmet (this is compulsory, if you have no helmet you wont be able to ride with us) and appropriate clothing for the weather (if you have any bright or hi-viz then wear that). As usual we do expect you to have ensured your bike is roadworthy and that you have carried out basic pre ride checks. You should also ensure that you are carrying a hand pump, tools (including tyre levers), at least one spare inner tube for your bicycle, money and a 'phone.
