Let's celebrate the longest day of the year by getting out bright and early to go to the coast for coffee!
This route has some challenging hills (both up and down) ... up Came Down, then down Coombe Valley Road with glorious views of the sea in front of us. We return by the NCN26 cycle path. You'll need to have some experience of riding in groups on the road, and tackling 'cheeky' hills - not a ride for beginners.
Please have something to eat before we set out - whilst you may want a 'second breakfast' at Oasis cafe on the beach, you'll need to be fuelled ready for those hills out of Dorchester!
Bring water, layers (it will start chilly then warm up), and a spare inner tube for your bike please.
Ride leaders Pat and Alison will make sure no-one gets left behind and provide support and encouragement if you've never tackled Came Down or Coombe Valley Road before.
Any questions about the ride, contact ride leader Alison on 07967 094967.
