The route forms the shortest ride to and up Pishill and back and will form the basis of a Thursday evening chain-gang. The purpose is to develop close riding (chaingang) skills, speed and power - developing the ride to make the best of the available light in a ride that will be at least 2 (and up to 3) hours. Riders are strongly advised to bring 'get you seen lights' but if delayed 'to see the road' lights are preferred.
