Leisure Ride - Sunday 24th November 2019

A change of Scenery this week as we head South for the flatter roads of Buckinghamshire. Meeting up with the C ride at Twyford Community cafe, providing you the opportunity to mix and match your ride with elements of both rides.
Both rides will be returning the same route, so if you have extended yourselves with the C's, on the return you can ease off and get picked up by the Leisure ride following on behind.
Please let the ride leader you are signed with know you are swapping rides, so we do not want to mislay anyone.

Route:
Gawcott, Preston Bissett, Chetewode, Stratton Audley, Marsh Gibbon, Twyford, Calvert, Steeple Claydon, Padbury Mill, Lenborough, Gawcott, Buckingham.

Weather:
A return to slightly warmer temperatures 9-10 deg., still cold enough to wrap up, but not as bad as the last couple of weeks. With the warmer temp also comes a higher risk of a shower, so do carry a shower top 'just in case'. Winds are moderate (10-12) from the South, to give us a gentle push home.

There is still a fair amount of standing water around, please fit mudguards if you have them, to protect your clubmates from being spattered. Also be aware of the mud and gravel making the roads that little bit more slippy. Please carry a spare innertube or repair kit, as the risk of a puncture is higher with debris washed on the road.
As always, a helmet is not just good sense, it is mandatory on club rides.

If you are around, come along and join me or indeed one of the other rides, leaving the Swan Pool at 09:00 this Sunday.

Hope t0 see you there.
