Snow much fun? 10am Sunday 15th ...


This months family cycle ride is planned for this Sunday, 15th February. Meeting at Millhouses Park Café at 10 am ish for a 10.30 start, then cycle through Ecclesall woods to Whirlowbrook Hall for a lunch stop (space to picnic in garden, or café) and back to the start.
This ride has got nice stretches of off-road cycling in the woods and is not too long or challenging, although can be a bit muddy if the tracks in the wood are very boggy or wet.

We will need the snow to have melted a bit more though before we can do it – the tracks are not very cycleable at the moment – so check this blog the day before and we’ll post an update on whether its going ahead or not.

Other planned rides for 2009 are (every third Sunday, 10 for 10.30 am):

15 March – meet at Rother Valley Country Park Visitor Centre
19 April – bikes on tram ride – meet at Cathedral tram stop at 10 am (nb note this ride starts a bit earlier than our normal rides)
17 May – meet at Grassmoor Country Park
21 June – meet at Old Moor Wetlands Centre car park
19 July – meet at Endcliffe Park Café
16 August – trip to Clumber Park

We’ll post directions and route descriptions on the blog - plus email them out the week before the ride.
Happy riding.
