Ride Leaders Required

News

The keen eyed amongst you will have noticed that there are currently no leaders for the rides scheduled on Tuesday 24th April and and Sunday 10th June. I am expecting to be away on these dates but have planned a route if anyone would like to follow it. The coffee stop for the Tuesday ride could be the new Stag Cafe just outside Elmswell, or Teacups in Woolpit on Sunday. The route heads to Lavenham for Lunch which should present some opportunities to suit (even perhaps a picnic from the Co-op…), before heading back to town. If anyone would like the gpx file for the route, please get in touch.

Snowmageddon – the worst week of weather for thirty years

The Beast from the East

Good weather, bad weather or just the wrong clothes? It’s all in a days riding to the group. We like to ride as often as possible, however the state of the icy snow covered back roads can put off all but the most intrepid cyclist, however their can be benefits.

 

The Beast from the East brought with it the most spectacular sunset on Tuesday, along with some biting winds, or was that storm Emma?

As we approach the weekend, snow and ice are still lying, so the decision has been taken to postpone the ride next Sunday (4th March). We shall meet up to ride again on Thursday 8th at Milton Park and Ride for a tour of the Guided bus way to Houghton Mill. The ride will cross the Greenwich Meridian to the Western Hemisphere so don’t forget your passport!

In the meantime enjoy your cycling… if you can.

Stay safe, Paul
