B Spring Equinox ride

Ah, the Spring Equinox, a time of balance and renewal, and for cyclists, a herald of longer days and warmer rides. As winter's grip loosens, the Spring Equinox whispers, "Pack away your thermal gear; the season of shorts and sunscreen is upon us."

On this day, cyclists everywhere experience a collective joy, a seasonal shift in gear, if you will. Gone are the days of navigating through the gloom with lights ablaze. Now, they ride under the burgeoning light as day and night hold hands in perfect equilibrium, promising more daylight for future adventures.

Imagine the scene: The first ride after the Spring Equinox. Cyclists emerge like bears from hibernation, blinking in the bright light, their bikes gleaming with anticipation. This is no ordinary ride—it's a rebirth, a declaration that the tyranny of indoor trainers is over. The roads and trails call, beckoning with the allure of wildflowers and the promise of sun-kissed afternoons.

But let's not forget the real challenge the Spring Equinox brings: the fierce competition for café terrace seats. In their colourful plumage, Cyclists descend upon local haunts, eager for the first post-ride coffee in the sunshine. It's a gentle reminder that the season of camaraderie, of shared tales and laughter under open skies, has returned.

So, as we celebrate the Spring Equinox, let's pedal forward into the season of renewal, embracing longer days and the promise of countless rides under a benevolent sun. Here's to leaving behind the solitude of winter rides and welcoming the shared joy of spring cycling. Cheers to the Spring Equinox, when every cyclist feels a little lighter, a bit more buoyant on their saddle, ready to conquer the roads and trails anew. And if you think that a load of tosh, we have free cakes and brew.
