Map

A frankly quite silly ride, which will take us through Cosham, Portchester and Fareham, and on to Gosport, visiting various sites of absolutely no historical or cultural significance, along with various bits of other tom foolery for the groups entertainment.

Elevenses and joke competition at Silver Springs

Lunch at Gosport

We’ll return home via the Portsdown Tunnel under the Harbour (open for Gosport Heritage week) or if claustrophobic you may prefer to use the ferry

Ride Pace - 10 Firkins a Fortnight

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.
