Bottom of Victoria Road, Saltaire BD18 3LA, Free parking at Hirst Lock BD18 4NQ Half a mile along the towpath

This is one of my regular rides to Toby's Tearooms which sits by the towpath near Apperley Bridge, and well worth a visit, but not only are there scheduled works to upgrade the towpath, the towpath is very muddy in parts at this time of year. I am therefore making this a road ride. We will avoid the main road wherever possible, so there could be a little walking involved at busy junctions. It's a good idea to bring some water, snack to keep you going and money for when we stop at the cafe. 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. We really welcome newcomers to our rides; we will always ride at the pace of the slowest rider so no one is left behind. All you need is a roadworthy bike, sensible clothing and a bit of enthusiasm. It helps to have a spare inner tube of the correct size - just in case. My contact number on the day is 07940 975 971 I look forward to you joining us.
