Map
This ride is to look for, identify and sometimes photograph the wildflowers that we find at Bidbury, then between Bidbury and QECP.
At 10am we will go and look in the churchyard of Old Bedhampton church, very near the start and note the wildflowers seen. Then we'll set off for Rowlands Castle, at a modest pace. Planned route is Finchdean, Buriton and left to the cycleway into QECP, where we will have lunch. To get home, I plan to ride via Chalton back to Finchdean and Rowlands.
Some climbing is necessary on this ride, but it will be at a leisurely speed.
Cyclists may like to bring a pen and the "i-spy wildflowers" book, to note which ones we see.

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.
