Map
The return of the Solstice Ride
Departing from Cosham Library 9.30pm
We'll head to Winchester and stop at Wetherspoons for a coffee or beer
Then we'll continue through the night to Amesbury and Stonehenge, where we'll join the crowds and watch the sunrise at 4.41am
Good Lights are essential
Ride distance is 90km, but expect the ride itself to be demanding due to the time of day (night)
Riders should make their own plans for returning home, the easiest option is a short ride to Salisbury and then by train.

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.
