Short Ride to Xmas Fayre

This is a short, easy, flat ride, taking us to see several artists exhibiting (and selling) their work in their own studios at The Stables for their Xmas Fayre. Paintings, woodturning, ceramics…there’ll be something festive for everyone. There’s no obligation at all to purchase, but you might like to snap up something that’ll fit in your bike bag. They were extremely welcoming when we turned up for Harrow Open Studios (https://www.harrowopenstudios.com/) and for the Xmas Fayre they promise mulled wine and refreshments...hopefully a mince pie!

We'll use mostly quiet local roads except for crossing the Uxbridge Road and George V, which we'll probably do on foot. The path we take through the farm is not suitable for road bikes.

We’ll stop for tea at the Parklife cafe in Boxtree Park, before returning to the Moat Cafe.

Check your bike before the ride, especially tyre pressure and brakes. Bring a spare innertube (check it's the correct size), a pump and tools to repair a puncture. Bring some money for possible purchases and for tea.

First-timers are welcome!
