Exclusive Ride to white post cafe
Vivary Park BandStand.
09:30 – 14:00
This is going to be an amazing ride with lots of sunshine and the temperature rising to at least 20C it will have a couple of little hills and is likely to be about 35 miles, all with a tail wind to help us along.   It is only going to have a very exclusive few attending (all of which are the real deal Cycle Somerset members ) which is primarily what will make it such an enjoyable event.    As the white post cafe is now under new management, and as I have not yet been there (since the change of ownership)  I thought it a good oppourtunity to try it out this Saturday, possibly for Brunch :-) We will only be stopping for coffee and cake so should be back home in time for a late lunch. Looking forward to seeing you all and having a jolly enjoyable morning.   Meet - Vivary Park Bandstand 09:30 Ride Leader :- Ross.
