Following a fall whilst cycling to Burley on the Mince Pie Ride last Tuesday, Jim was taken to Southampton Hospital with a hip-joint fracture and was operated on the following day. I am very sorry to say that he passed away last night in the hospital, with Janet by his side.
The annual picnic ride will take place on Thursday 17th July at the Hyde War Memorial Parish Hall.
There will be a cash charge of £2 per person. I would like all the ride groups to enter at least one team of 6. Members and partners are welcome.
It’s that time of year again and the Club are pleased to let you know about this year’s Mince Pie Run which is planned for Tuesday, 17th December.
The 2024 Full Moon Ride starts 7.00pm Friday 20th September at Bournemouth Pier.
Our next annual cycling weekend takes place on 6 – 8/9 September 2024 in Cirencester. The itinerary is now published.
The annual picnic ride will take place at 09:30 from Burton Green on Tuesday 23rd July, where all ride groups will make their various ways to Woodgreen Village Hall for a 12:30 picnic, free for all members.
On the 15th October Matt Rendell, the Tour de France commentator, will be hosting an evening at the Forest Arts Centre in New Milton where he will share some of the stories he has witnessed during his time covering the Tour.
The forum has been made available again and all members are encouraged to make use of it as a communication and information channel.
Many of our ride groups use GPX files to show the intended route for the day - this helps people prepare, as well as enabling those leading to follow the route on a cycle computer (such as a Garmin). We have planned 2-3 sessions explaining how to create, view and follow GPX routes.
