Swinley Enduro is nearly upon us!! So I’m getting another sneaky practise in while the kids are at school!! We will be following as much of last year’s route as we have time for.
If you fancy joining me, then let me know as I can lift a couple of people.
Remember to bring pads and a helmet.
We will meet outside the Swinley Bike Hub for a 10am set off.
A fairly long Tuesday nighter at 37 km with the customery 500m climb. Weather looks fine so if we get way smarty we should still be back in time for a pint. There are some short cuts should time be against us. Route is Hodson, Aerial mast climb, Rickety Bridge down. Shooting club (not Gypsy lane Climb) Ladder and home. Jacket, helmet and lights a must.
This week we will start our ‘Motivator’ ride in a different place!
we will head out from the Three Trees Cafe to Coate water , via Chiseldon and the whirly twirly bridge.
We will then go on to the Croft Trail, passed the Broome Manor Golf course. At Croft there will be chance for a lap or 2, if you would like a bit more of a technical and ‘off – road’ ride!
After Croft we will head back to the Three Trees via Coate Water and Badbury Wick.
This ride is about 14 miles and suitable for Mountain bikes and hybrid bikes with off road tyres.
If you would rather not ride the Croft Trail , then that’s no problem, there are some benches that you can have a well earned rest on!
There will of course be a coffee/tea/cake stop back at the cafe after the ride.
