A much cooler day on Saturday is forecast though it is due to be dry with a light north easterly wind.
The Blue and Pink routes head through Semley and Tisbury on their way to Wylye. They make their way back past Shearwater, through Maiden Bradley and the two Brewhams.
The White route also heads towards Semley then north to East Knoyle, and on to Horsingham and Shearwater. They then head through the Deverills and over Mere Down and out to West Bourton on the way back to Gillingham.
Its a 9.00 am start, meet at the Wheels car park, Station Road, Gillingham. Please ensure you download your chosen route to your GPS device, and remember to bring your ride essentials, particularly sufficient liquid refreshments.
Also a heads up for next Saturday, 29th August. Charlotte has a round birthday this month and wants to take a Blue paced ride to Burnham on Sea. They will leave Gillingham at 8.30 am.
There is nothing to stop a group splitting into a ‘light’ and a ‘dark’ group, and a slower group can take on a longer route or a faster group ride a shorter route. All rides are no drop rides but please select a group suited to your ability!
