Sandals & Thorpes thru Field & Croft

Starting out from the car park at Sandall Beat wood we're heading out on a mixture of off road woodland trails, quiet and not so quiet roads (not too much of the latter though), bridleways and lanes. It'll no doubt be a bit wet and muddy in places so come prepared for the conditions, and expect to get damp mucky feet. We're going to have our cafe stop towards the end of the ride at Sandall Park. Meet up at the start point at 9.15am with a view to departing at 9.30am, we will be riding for approx 2 hours in all so anticipate returning to the start a little after mid day (depending on how long we stay at the cafe). Obviously the mixture of on and off road makes this generally unsuitable to road bikes. --------------------------------------------------------------------------- IMPORTANT INFO FOR PARTICIPANTS! Make sure you wear your helmet (this is compulsory, if you have no helmet you wont be able to ride with us) and appropriate clothing for the weather (if you have any bright or hi-viz then wear that). As usual we do expect you to have ensured your bike is roadworthy and that you have carried out basic pre ride checks; you should also carry at least one spare inner tube, a pump, and tools to enable you to change a tube if necessary. Dont forget too to bring money for refreshments and a mobile 'phone.
