Time :: 9.30am for a 10.00am start.

Car Parking - Verges at the side of a quiet country lane

Terrain - Singletrack, double track and quiet country lanes

We will be stopping at the lovely Gait Inn in Millington for a drink but as unfortunately we won't reach the pub until nearly 3/4 distance I would suggest bringing some food for a mid ride stop.
The route is known for having some very muddy areas in the bottoms of the valleys and the recent weather doesn't fill me with confidence that these will be now be dry so come prepared.

The ride is not especially technical but has some fairly tough climbs and wonderful views! Don't let the climbing put you off just join me at the back walking and admiring the scenery

No Helmet = No Ride

I should be ok for this one. I remember it well from last year as I had my new tyres on, bought from Chris. Coincidentally the tyres came up in conversation yesterday during the 'Doncatraz' ride as Spud had one on the front of his Marin.
