Starting point

RH10 7HG

Maidenbower Park Car Park, Maidenbower Drive, Maidenbower, Crawley, RH10 7HG

This is a lovely route, mostly off road on a well maintained shared cycle, bridle and footpath. There are short sections along quiet roads and a few roads to cross. The route will take us through farmland and woodland, past Worth Church, through the peaceful village of Crawley Down and on to East Grinstead. Once in East Grinstead we will have some refreshments in a well known coffee shop, before making our way home along the Worth Way. The return journey will have the additional fun factor of being in the dark, so lights are an absolute essential, as is some reflective clothing. Make sure you are dress appropriately for the time of year, plenty of warm layers and gloves, wind/rain proof jacket. Bring a padlock and money for refreshments. Please also check your brakes are working and tyres sufficiently inflated and that you have a correct size spare inner tube, and suitable pump. (Preferably some idea of how to fit it should the need arise). Changing an inner tube in the dark and cold can be tricky and will be advantageous to complete as soon as possible so we don't get too cold. Due to the nature of this ride there will be plenty of Breeze Champions and we will need to be mindful of the weather on the day and leading up to it, but will notify all riders should we need to cancel.
