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.

Tuesday Night Ride – Wet n Windy again @ The Bayberry
Jan 9 @ 7:00 pm – 9:45 pm
Tuesday Night Ride - Wet n Windy again @ The Bayberry | United Kingdom

The usual Tuesday night ride onto the Ridgeway. The weather forecast looks wet and windy yet again, so we will be riding harder pack trails and a bit of urban – all subject to change according what weather actually transpires.

You must wear a helmet, bring lights (strong enough for the dark of the Ridgeway) and appropriate clothing (warm waterproofs at the moment).

If you have not been on a club ride before and are not a club member, you are welcome to join us to see what it is like before joining. Details on the benefits of membership and how to join can be found by clicking here.

Cotswolds Pretty Rocky Ride @ The Carpenter's Arms, Miserden
Jun 9 @ 10:00 am – 3:00 pm
Although we go south of Swindon lots, but we’ve not yet done a trip to the north, so let’s change that!
Starting in the village of Miserden, just north of Cirencester, we will do a 20km lap of some fantastic scenery and riding. The views are driving the route, but there are some epic downhills as well. It’s graded as Red for technicality (due to the rocky descents and climbs) and Red for fitness, as there is over 500m of climbing involved.

We will start and finish at the Carpenter’s Arms in Miserden. It’s a great pub with excellent post ride sustenance and even a sweet shop inside.

Helmets are compulsory as always and knee pads are advised.
Full suspension bikes recommended – the uphills are just as rocky as the downs!
