Saturday easy ride

This weekend we have another easy / intro Saturday ride. With good weather and a westerly wind, the route will be out to Arthingworth again. https://connect.garmin.com/modern/course/269279108
We typically split into two groups – and it being the holiday season, I’m currently without a second leader! If you can navigate a route and are prepared to help lead a small bunch of competent riders, please message me, and I can explain more.
We meet at the Rockingham Road Pleasure Park (near the bandstand), ready for a 10am departure. We take breaks as required and aim to complete the ride in two hours.
If the Sunday club rides sound a bit too serious, we are starting a series of shorter, more relaxed Saturday rides. These will be 15-20 miles long, and take around two hours. They will be a great way to get to know our club. All you need is a roadworthy bike. 

Route: https://connect.garmin.com/modern/course/269279108

Distance: Approximately 18 miles

Pace: Easy pace, no-drop policy

Who should attend: This ride is open to all cyclists, but it is not a coaching ride. It is not be suitable for absolute beginners.

Weather: The weather forecast will be reviewed before the ride, and if bad weather conditions are expected the ride will be cancelled up to 24 hours before the start of the ride. Check back on this website for any changes.
