Witchel-Wednesday @ Waitrose Swindon
Nov 23 @ 6:00 pm – 7:30 pm
Witchel-Wednesday @ Waitrose Swindon | England | United Kingdom
You might have noticed it being a bit moist so far this week, so we’re going to do our Witchelstowe loop this week. 
Starting at the Waitrose car park we will head along the southern flyer, by the canal onto the old railway line round the bottom of Old Town, right to the top, before heading to Croft. After an optional lap there we will proceed back to Waitrose through Witchelstowe along canal and “lakes” (ok, large ponds!).
The ride will be about 9 miles (plus and laps of Croft you want to do) and is nicely suited for beginners.
Meet by the disabled parking at the front of Waitrose at 6pm – you will need lights and a helmet.

Quantocks Club Ride @ Quantocks, Holford Bowling Green Car Park
Jul 23 @ 10:00 am – 1:00 pm
Quantocks Club Ride @ Quantocks, Holford Bowling Green Car Park | England | United Kingdom

Matt will be leading this club ride around the quantocks on the 23rd July.

Ride distance will be approx 28km with climbing in the region of 800m so a reasonable level of stamina will be required, but we’ll all stay together and obviously no one’s left behind.

This really is a great day out on the bike, great descents, with views and scenary to match, a lovely place to ride. There is a pub nr the car park for post ride refreshment. The ride is doable on a hardtail, but more fun on a full suss.

There are no shops or cafes on route so a rucksack with food and water is a must, as is a helmet.

The ride starts from Holford bowling green car park TA5 1SA at 10am

Wednesdays After Work at Croft @ Croft Cycle Trail | England | United Kingdom

Our usual Wednesday visit to Croft will incorporate some skills practice this week.

After a warm up lap, we will do a development lap. This will involve doing a lap of the trail stopping at certain obstacles to practice our skills: rock gardens, cornering & small jumps. There is also an option to practice drops if anyone fancies that too.
After that we will finish with a quick lap to blend all the practice together.

Meet in the car park at 5.45pm

You will need a helmet, but not lights.

APOLOGIES EVERYONE, BUT TONIGHTS EVENT IS CANCELLED
Sorry, but due to ride leader unavailability (due to sick child!), I’ve had to cancel tonight’s ride. 
=========================================

We’re back for a Wednesday Night session at Croft.
The trail takes on a different vibe in the dark – loads of fun still with a bit of extra spice that comes from riding with lights 🙂
The tight nature of the trail keeps you on your toes too!
 
We’ll be taking easy as usual for Wednesday nights, so perfect if you’ve not been night riding before and going round as a group boosts the available light too.
 
Needless to say you’ll need lights for this ride, a helmet as always and current forecast suggests waterproofs as well.
 
Meet in the car park at 5.45pm
