Last week we managed a whole lap in daylight, so going to start slightly earlier at 5.30 and I reckon we might get 2 in daylight if you’re prompt 😊
But we will continue into the dark, so don’t worry if you can’t make it till a bit later – just come down and have a fun few laps whenever you can.
Meet in Croft car park for 5.30 start, or on the trial after that.
As well as leading SMTBE rides, I am also a Breeze champion, and I am leading a combined Breeze ride, with a RideSocial bit in the middle.
I have put together a few of my favourite routes with an adventurous twist in the middle! We will start the route at the Three Trees Cafe , then take the cycle path through Chiseldon and then head to Coate Water via the ‘twirly whirly bridge’. We will ride round the back of Coate Water and head out onto the roads by the Broome Manor estate. After a short section of quiet road we will pick up the cycle path again down the side of the golf course and head onto Pipers Way and to Croft. This is where we will stop for a short break from the Breeze ride and if you want to join the ‘Ride Social’ at this point, then that will be the adventurous twist – a lap of Croft!
We will then continue the Breeze ride, head back to Coate Water via Broome Manor and stop for coffee or toilets if required. After Coate, we will take the Badbury Wick route back to the Three Trees Cafe, which is all quiet country roads. Once back at the Three Trees Cafe we will stop for a much needed hot drink and a cake!
Meet in the Three Trees Cafe car park for a 10am start.
Starting at the Wanborough Village Hall at 10.30am, we will take the back Road to Covingham. We will then go across the fly over towards South Marston where we will take the country lanes and some off road routes to Nightingale woods. After a quick whizz round the woods and a short stop we will head back to Wanborough along the same route as we came. We will then finish by having a drink in the pub!!!
This route is around 12 miles, suitable for hybrid bikes with off road tyres or mountain bikes.
It’s perfect for beginners and novice riders, a truly lovely social ride for everyone.
Hope to see you on Sunday Ladies 😀
As well as SMTBE, I’m also a Breeze champion and I’m doing a nice easy and scenic ride from Chiseldon to Marlborough. This is perfect for beginners and those that want a lovely gentle social ride with other lady riders.
Whilst Adrian is doing his ‘Best Bits’ at Swinley, I’ll be joining the lovely Swinley ladies ride!
These are very well organised and friendly rides, with groups for all abilities at a great trail centre.
It’s friendly and fun and the best bit of our ride is we get a glass of prosseco after!! 
🍾
The rides start from the Swinley Bike Hub at 10am – you’ll need to be there a little earlier to register.
