Uphill Out and Downhill Back

With the season just getting started with evening rides, this is a short and easy evening ride where we head out through Old Basing, Up Newnham Hill and then steadily head for home through Mapledurwell. As the evenings get longer we can build on this loop adding extensions, more hills and increasing the pace. This ride is suitable for road and hybrid bikes, and those looking for a short evening circuit. As usual, the pace will be set by those riders attending. Please bring enough layers to stay warm and dry until you get home and check your bike over before riding in to the start. Due to the factors of unforseen punctures and delays, (hopefully we don't have any!) and the darkness then inevitable, suitable full front and rear lights are compulsory to meet legal requirements. As dusk falls we must ensure safety for ourselves, fellow riders and of course the cars we share the road with. Your front light must be able to provide sufficient light to see on unlit roads if required. if you have any questions please don't hesitate to contact us in any of the usual ways: [email protected] facebook.com/breezingstoke twitter @breezingstoke
