9.30 am meet. 12 - 14 mph average, route will be a mix of quieter lanes and some busy roads. We will head out via Whitwell towards Hitchin with a cafe stop approximately halfway. We will return via Hexton, Lilley and Bendish back. There will be hills, no worries we regroup at the top. :) Please do bring plenty to drink and some snacks.
Start is outside Loafing (The Bakery) in Wheathampstead at 9.30am.
Public car park, toilet and also plenty of street parking available nearby.
Please do check your emails and text messages before leaving, I may have to cancel the ride if it is not safe for us to ride. Fingers crossed :)
The important bits:
Ensure your bike is in good working order and you have an emergency backup/taxi number to call on in case of issues.
Ride Related:
- check your bike the night before (Tyre pressure will go down when your bike has not been used or from use!)
- carry 2 spare inner tubes, tyre levers and correct pump
- Money for coffee/emergencies. Helmet (compulsory on ride-sorry!)
- Water and a snack, just in case
- Appropriate bright and warm clothing (Rain/Sun – hopefully the latter)
- Lights (not essential but a plus in winter)
See you soon X
