The Windmills of Your Ride: This is a 30 mile ride, the first part of which is challenging (and not for the faint hearted). We go out through Stoke St Mary and up to the top of Castle Neroche via Curland, along the ridge, Hare Lane and down into Broadway, to Monk's Yard for coffee. On the return leg we start the drove and then head for Ashill, Beercrocombe and Curry Mallet, then descend down Rock Hill, up to North Curry before heading home via 13 Bends. The weather is not promising but improving. Ride Leader: Paul

A 28 mile ride to Braziers in Tonedale via Langford Budville, Higher Greenham, Holywell Lake, Tonedale and back via East Nineham and Bradford on Tone. It is a fairly strenuous ride due to a number of hills. A slow to moderate pace. There will be a banana stop on the way as the coffee stop is after nearly 20 miles so bring a banana or equivalent. Note earlier time of 9.15 at Bishops Hull church.    Ride leader: Hazel 

Easy going ride to Middlezoy for coffee and cake at The Country Kitchen. Route is about 30 miles out via North Curry, Stoke St Gregory and Stathe and returning via Athelney and Curland. Possibly two additional hills due to a road closure between Lower Knapp and North Curry. Forecast is cloudy with 10% chance of rain and warmer. Alternatives in case of bad weather are a shorter ride stopping at the Willows & Wetlands or a social meeting at The Coach House. Ride Leader: Pete W

No serious uphills and about 40 miles. Please book by 6 pm on Friday 14th. Leader: David (Slow one) Apologies to anyone expecting this ride to have been on Sunday but I may have family business then so it's moved to Saturday.

Monk's Yard Mystery Tour: This is a three option ride...if the weather is kind to us (unlikely given the forecast) we will do a 35 mile round trip taking in a few hills, challenging, and up high before dropping down for coffee at Monk's Yard. On return we will follow a flatter kinder route. If the weather is a little unkind we will go gently out and flat back, 25 miles. If the weather is horrible (Promised!) we will just have to negotiate the steps at The Coach where we will met for coffee and enjoy each others company. We can't lose! Ride Leader: Paul
