Apologies to Tim and Dave for the wrong date on the original of this ride. The day has now moved to Thursday and the week is right. A club ride out to Kelways Garden Centre for lunch and a further coffee stop on the return leg, weather permitting (the 2 week forecast site says good). 32-35 mile fairly flattish ride.   Please book in the usual way using the ticketing system, but if you really have problems with that please CLICK HERE AND EMAIL   Leader: Arthur

Tour de Ilminstre: The crowds will be out in force to see us pass (Immaculate riding, stylish dress sense etc) on Tuesday...maybe! This is a slightly longer ride, 25 - 30 miles, to the Arts Centre at Ilminster, up the hill at Stoke St Mary and returning via Curry Mallet and 13 bends. It should be a little cooler but bring your drinks and snacks as usual. Ride leader: Paul

The Daisy Dawdle: This is a familiar but favourite ride out to Bishops Lydeard for a coffee stop at the Daisy Cafe, the reverse route through Bishops Hull, via Halse Ash Common and returning via Kingston. We are relying on the weather, it will be hot, so the usual rules apply. Apologies for a lack of info last week, but a foreign posting and unreliable Wi-Fi, due to Brexit negotiations, prevented it!

N.B. Please brng your own picnic lunch to this ride.   Starting at 10.30 at the bandstand in Vivary Park. We will wend our way through the beautiful country lanes of Somerset as we head towards the distant Blackdowns. It will be quite hilly in places with one storker of a climb. However, once we gain the summit it will be more or less downhill till we reach the lunch stop in Tim's garden. Here the riders will consume their own picnic they have brought with them and this will then be followed by strawberries and cream. The return trip to Taunton will be short and simple.
