Hi I'm Alison your local Breeze champion. Come and join me on this Challenging but rewarding climb to Pines, being the highest Cafe in the Quantocks. You will have gained over 870 ft before rewarding yourself with well earned refreshments at the summit. It is just over a 6.5 mile climb from the YMCA with only Goathurst Village giving you a bit of a reprieve. You will be taking in some lovely countryside and scenery and hope it's only the views that leave you breathless. We will be passing both Durleigh and Hawkridge Reservoir, and although the return ride is more forgiving with some nice descents to enjoy, it is still undulating. If you are used to cycling 15 miles and have experience of climbing some smaller hills, then this could be the challenge for you to finish your cycling year on a high (Literally!) Dress appropriately for the weather, Wearing a helmet is advisable especially due to the descents Please remember to bring some water, and a spare inner tube, just in case. I look forward to seeing you there! Any questions, please call Alison on 07760662007
