Rolling to Rockhampton

From Henbury Leisure Centre we’ll head towards Easter Compton along the Berwick Ln, onto Tockington, past Thornbury Golf Centre and stop at the Hill & Rockhampton WI. Once a month the Women's Institute put on an awesome spread of homemade cakes and tea & coffee so please bring some money! Riding our sugar and caffeine wave we'll roll back to Henbury along a slightly different route we ventured out on. Save a little energy for a medium but short hill towards the end. The route will be mainly on quiet roads, be around 30 miles at a pace of 8-11mph.  You’ll need to be confident riding on the roads and be of a reasonable level of fitness. Please bring a spare inner tube and puncture repair kit, snack to keep you going, water and money for the stop at the WI. Wearing a helmet is advisable; if you don’t have one please do not to worry you can still take part.  If you enjoy the bike ride and would like to come again perhaps you could look to buy one then.  Check the weather the night before – you may need waterproofs, gloves, sunglasses. We are a friendly bunch and really welcome newcomers to our rides! Look forward to seeing you there.
