Monday outing to Kenilworth

This is not one of our usual Monday rides but a challenging ride of approximately 45 miles. It is therefore only suitable for stronger cyclists. We will be cycling first to Shirley** to join up with the Solihull group and then on towards Dorridge and then out to Beausdale and Kenilworth (where we will stop for lunch) and then on to Burton Green, Balsall Common and Berkswell before coming back through Knowle. Mostly we will be on quiet country lanes but there is a short stretch on a busy road. There are no major hills, just one long road that is a bit of a drag. We will be aiming to cycle at a good pace of 11-12 mph, again aiming at stronger cyclists. Road or Hybrid bikes are therefore essential. Please bring a spare inner tube and don't forget money for the coffee stop. Waterproofs may be a good idea as well! ** For a slightly shorter option book with Solihull Group. If full give Gaye a ring We look forward to seeing you. Contact either of us if weather looks iffy on the day or to talk about Monday outings 07738334271 (Gaye) 07835544164 (Joan)
