The days are shortening and the temperature is falling, hence trees are loosing their leaves quite rapidly now. But the days are dry and there's little wind. It can be quite nice cycling conditions.

We'll cycle from RC over to Buriton and then to West Meon via East Meon. Return via Old Winchester Hill and Clanfield.

Meet at Rowlands Castle @ 09.45.
Departure @ 10.00
Coffee at Cuppacheenos, W.Meon @ 11.00-11.40
Arrive back at RC @ 13.00.

About Saturday rides

Rides usually from Havant with stops for elevenses, lunch and sometimes tea. If you're unable to keep up or have a mechanical problem, someone will be available to help you - although we obviously cannot guarantee to solve all problems.

Riders are free to join and leave the ride at various points. Some ride directly to the elevenses stop.

Saturday rides are (usually) much smaller than Wednesday rides. As a result they offer fewer options for rides but more flexibility for routes and destinations.

The rides are often shown as 'informal' meaning there is no prescribed ride leader. Unless weather is particularly adverse, however, they always go ahead at the stated time and start point. We try to keep to the suggested elevenses destination to allow for people who want to ride directly there.

The lunch destination does change occasionally but we will always take views of riders into account. In particular, if you join a ride because you think you can manage the distance/hilliness, we would not substitute an alternative if it meant you couldn't join the ride.

If you want to ride with us but only to elevenses and need someone to help you with the route back, please use our general enquiry form to let us know in advance of the ride so we can try to arrange something for you.
