To complement the Ladies Ride, a brief aerobic ride up Blagdon Hill and across the top for a blast down Staplefitzpaine Hill. Meet at the Vivary Bandstand and coffee in Vivary Park post ride.

A long challenging ride for the super fit, e-bikes or anyone who rode the C2C in May should manage this. We can factor in a short coffee stop at The Rocking Horse Stogumber, have lunch at The Old Ship Aground on Minehead Quay.  We will have a guided tour around the lifeboat station and equipment by Dr John Higgie Minehead RNLI operations manger and medical officer at 14.00.  The route includes some significant ascents and riding along the A39 where there is a narrow cycle path. I would expect to be back in Taunton by 18.00 at the latest.     Members should ensure they sign up for a ride that is suitable for them New members are advised to contact the ride leader if in any doubt   Starting at Brewhouse Taunton Start time 09.15 Ride Leader Neil Rudram Contact number  07989 430179 Places up to 12 8             Distance* Extended Miles 60 Terrain** Hard Height Gain metres 940 Pace*** Intermediate Average mph 10          Route Out Nailsbourne, Stairfoot, W.Bagborough, Triscombe, Crowcombe Heathfield, Stogumber, Bicknoller, W.Quantockshead, Watchet, Blue Anchor, Carhampton, Dunster Stopping At Minehead Old Ship Aground and RNLI lifeboat station Route Back Same route back to Blue Anchor, Old Cleeve, Washford, Cleeve Abbey, Monksilver, Elworthy, Bishops Lydeard, Taunton.
