Ladies Ride

09:30 – 14:00
It's fun to stay at the (Bridgwater) YMCA: This is a thirty mile round trip, starting at The Weir and heading out through Creech St Michael and up Thirteen Bends, Somerset Levels and a bit of the canal before stopping at the YM for coffee and cakes. The return journey is via North Petherton, North Newton and both Creeches. It will be a moderate pace with Thirteen Bends the only hill of any significance! If it is rainy there will be a shorter ride, if raining heavily there will be a soacial do in the cafe.

Tail of the Hurricane: This describes the likely weather, not the pace of our ride. Given the forecast for Tuesday plans have been amended. We will have a shorter, circular ride around Taunton giving us several options!
i. If the weather is as predicted, we have a coffee and talk about our greatest rides for a couple of hours.
ii. The weather starts well, we set off on our ride until it gets wet, we turn for home and have a coffee at base.
iii. The weather stays fine, we complete the route and have coffee on the road and then return!
I hope this sounds OK? I didn't want us out in West Somerset and getting a drenching.

Fyne Day... : This is a 30 mile round trip out through Creech St Michael, Thurloxton, stopping for coffee at Fyne Court. On the return we head for the remains of The Pines, Merridge, Spaxton, Durleigh, North Petherton, North Newton, Creech and home. The weather promises to be glorious so bear that in mind in terms of drinks and sunscreen etc. N.B. If the weather holds the intention is to undertake a longer ride to Watchet and back on the last Tuesday of Summer, the 24th, with a light lunch out. It would be good to have as many regulars as possible to celebrate our Harvest Festival ride!
