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

Xmas Motivator @ The Three Trees Cafe
Dec 28 @ 9:30 am – 12:00 pm
We haven’t done a midweek motivator ride for ages, so, this isn’t one either!
But it’s close – a fairly short XC ride to release those endorphins and get you from Christmas to New Year.
Β 
Starting and ending at the Three Trees Cafe, we’ll head out on the Ridgeway, up the gentler climbs to the top of Barbury Castle. Then over the top, down Smeathes Ridge, back along Smeathe’s Bottom and back home via Gypsy Lane and the old railway line.
Nothing too taxing – 19km and 195m of climbing, a couple of fun descents in there too.Β 
Β 
You’ll need a helmet and appropriate clothing for the weather.

We’ll set off from Three Trees at 9.30am
