A short & flat 5 mile ride (8.6Km) with a purpose and chance to be part of PCTC history 🙂

Starting at Farlington Marshes we will follow the cycle route down to Milton Common, then head over to Garnier Street.

This was the location of the Co-operative rooms where PCTC was formed 100 years ago & is now an Asda store car park.

We'll stop here for group photos. Please wear PCTC kit, traditional or centenary, a mix of both will be ideal, if you don't have a PCTC jersey let me know and we can loan you one for the photo.

Photos completed we'll brave a cycle ride through Portsmouth for elevenses at the Cafe in the Park. The ride ends here so plan your own route out of Portsmouth and home.

No limit on numbers for this ride.

If preferred you can meet us at Garnier Street

The route includes a railway footbridge, but there is an alternative for anyone who needs it.

Bookings for this ride/event

Booking is required for this ride. Please let the ride leader know if you want to join. Please do not turn up for the ride unless you've had your booking confirmed or your name appears below.

The ride leader might increase the size of the ride, especially if they get support from another ride leader. Please don't be put off asking to join the ride if it shows as full.

This ride is currently full but we encourage you to ask to join the wait list. That will let the ride leader:

  • Find out the demand for that type of ride
  • Nominate you as a replacement if someone drops out
  • Arrange to split the ride if there is sufficient demand

About Pop-up rides

We have certain days when we try to organise regular rides. However, individual ride leaders can create pop-up rides for any day and time.

The small size of some pop-up rides means we might be unable to split a ride if you get into difficulties. We will do all we can to escort you back to the start point, but please be prepared to navigate yourself home or to call for support from a partner, relative or friend.
