Map
This ride will be at an easy pace, from Bedhampton to the pub at Woodmancote and back. Please note that the start is NOT at the Spring. Also that the start time is later than usual; 10am. At Bidbury recreation ground there is free parking and public toilets are available. You may like to arrive at 9.50am, for a short chat before the start.
At the Woodmancote pub there is usually a good selection of cakes to go with your coffee or tea.
If there are more than 5 riders, we will split into two groups, so that cars can pass us more easily.

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.
If you want to ride with us but only to elevenses and need someone to help you with the route back, please let us know in advance of the ride so we can try to arrange something for you.
This article describes what you should consider bringing with you on one of these rides.
