All rides start from the Assembly Rooms unless otherwise stated.
Suitable stops are made for refreshments, but it is a good idea to carry some food and drink.
Please feel free to turn back at any time (tell the leader, please)
It’s a good idea to carry a local map and some basic tools such as spare inner tube(s)/puncture repair kit, pump and waterproofs.
Riders often come as far as the morning stop and then return.
