BREEZE THROUGH THE WINTER TO THE GEORGE AND DRAGON AT QUAINTON
Date – Sunday 22nd December
Time – 8.45 departure
Venue – The Swan Pool, London Road, Buckingham
Paid parking and toilets available at the pool
This week we have been invited by Swan Wheelers Cycle Club of Buckingham to join them for their Winter Solstice whole club ride to Quainton. We will have our own Breeze route but will meet the members of the club for free refreshments at Quainton. This gives everyone a chance to celebrate cycling and meet socially with our very supportive local cycling club.
This is a flattish route with a few undulations. We head out thorough Gawcott passing Preston Bissett, Twyford and Calvert Jubilee Nature Reserve and into Quainton where we stop for refreshments at the George and Dragon. We make our way home through Botolph Claydon, East Claydon, up Lenborough Hill and back into Gawcott before returning to the Swan 30 miles in total.
As always there are some hills but don’t panic, we ride at a pace to suit you with lots of rests to catch our breath.
Helmets must be worn, and you are advised to carry a spare inner tube to suit your tyres, as they vary, and others may not fit your bike. Better safe than sorry.
Hope I can show you some more safe riding lanes and possibly a new watering hole for you to visit. Travelling at a pace you set!
Sorry folks - the ride is cancelled due to the high winds. But please still meet up at the G&D (10:45) if you can - it would be great to see you

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:  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
> Quote text by starting lines with >
Mention another user by @username
For syntax highlighting, surround the code block with three backticks:
```

Just like Github, a blank line must precede a code block.
If you upload more than 5 files we will display all attachments as thumbnails.
