Burrowbridge Bash: This is an undulating, but doable, ride through Cheddon, Thurloxton and North Petherton, back to North Curry for a coffee (Community Cafe) and home via Thirteen Bends. There is the possibility of some light precipitation (18%) but generally warm. Ride Leader: Tony 

Note: Correction - Weekend ride not Saturday ... We've often stopped for coffee or lunch at the Potting Shed, and always been well looked after. Now it's under new management so it's time a weekend ride went there to make sure it's still cyclist friendly and up to the necessary standard! We'll go out through Ham, Hatch Beauchamp, Fivehead and Muchelney (carefully avoiding Rock Hill). After the coffee &/or lunch stop we'll return via Staithe, Burrowbridge, Athelney and 13 bends. This will be a gentle ride of about 40 miles with a few hills, and the aim will be to be back by about 3:30 pm. Leader: David Cox email David

Langport Pootle: this is a 25 mile round trip across the levels with a stop at the cafe by the river in Langport and back home in time for the afternoon. Fairly flat route and easy cycling with enough to keep it interesting. The weather forecast suggests a less than 10% chance of rain in the morning and temperatures of 9C - 13C.

Cancelled owing to yellow weather warning of heavy rain and thunderstorms.   This is an extra Ad Hoc ride to the relaunch event of the Quantock brewery at Bishops Lydeard. (It was bought by new owners hence the relaunch). The brewery is close to Bishops Lydeard station and produces a number of craft beers. We've been told that the main evening event, with food, will start at 6:30 pm, so we're leaving Taunton at 5:30 pm. The plan is to ride there going out via Oake and Halse, and back through Bishops Lydeard village and via Cothelstone and Kingston St Mary. The total distance is about 25 miles and there are some hills. BRING LIGHTS - although it should be light enough to see the way coming back it is important to have lights to be seen by. Although this event goes on until 11 pm we intend to leave by 9:30 at the latest - 9:00 more likely. Anyone wanting to stay longer will have to return independently.
