Placeholder for A ride - I will probably post the route up on Friday. Wind is SSW so may head in a southerly direction; hopefully the rain will hold off for the morning!

Got to be back for 12.30 this week so depending on where we travel I may have to slope off early

Could do something like this:

Riding clockwise should mean that the return in mostly cross/tail wind. Bit of headwind on the way out, plenty of cross wind too tho. Matt can peel off early if need be and head home directly? George and Dragon stop at 29 miles.

@James_R looks good to me and has the advantage that we can divert home early if the weather turns really bad. Let's go for that.

Summary:

Length: 55 miles / 89km, with the stop at 29 miles / 46 km. 
Ascent: approx 680m / 2200 ft. 
Pace 17-19 mph (no dropped riders).

Reminders: bring a mask, socially distance, meeting point A and click Yes, I'm Attending if coming.

Formatting Help

Don't worry about formatting, just type in the text and we'll take care of making sense of it. We will auto-convert links, and if you put asterisks around words we will make them bold.

Tips:

Create headers by underlining text with ==== or ----

To *italicise* text put one asterisk each side of the word

To **bold** text put two asterisks each side of the word

Embed images by entering:
![](https://www.google.co.uk/images/srpr/logo4w.png)
That's the hard one: exclamation, square brackets and then the URL to the image in brackets.

* Create lists by starting lines with asterisks

1. Create numbered lists by starting lines with a number and a dot

For syntax highlighting, surround the code block with three backticks:

Just like Github, a blank line must precede a code block.
