Description:
Please pre-book for this ride by contacting the ride leader. 1.5-2 hour ride at a riding pace of 18-20km/h (11-13mph)

NB: we plan to offer this as a bridge ride at a slower pace than normal to give 1* riders the opportunity to try out a 2* ride. If we have enough riders and leaders, we will offer two rides at different speeds.

Weather:
cloudy with heavy rain
Report:
This was our first bridging ride for a while and it was great to see a lot of interest from 1* riders looking to try stepping up a level. We split into two group (thanks to Gareth for leading Group Two). The forecast was uncertain but we set off with cautious optimism. Unfortunately, the weather intervened. Only about 2 miles in, it started to rain and then just got heavier. Much drenching occurred. We shortened the route and headed for the pub or home depending on which seems more appealing! In the end we had a good group dripping in the Fox and they looked after us very well.

Thanks to all for braving the conditions with good humour.
