Timbuktu (dummy ride for admin)

Mon, 6 Mar 2023
06:00 - 07:00

This is to get me started on how to post a ride and get attendance recorded on my phone. Please would 8 members join so that I can familiarise myself with the system.

I use Komoot as a planning/navigation aid which is free to download to a smart phone/PC and provides turn by turn voice instruction. It should also open up in Chrome for a look.

The route is my preferred way to Dillington and will probably be my first lead when weather improves. My other preference is for B roads over lanes plus I also use an E-bike tuned down to 20% to offset bike weight and advancing OAP status.

Thanks for your help, Chris
