[svccridesupdate] Tue 8 Aug Ride Newent Loop

Dear all,

 

Please refer to my earlier email, sent 3 Aug.

 

Location: Meet at Ashleworth Hub, Its a village shop/café come post office. Please do not use (if driving) the parking bays outside the Hub, as these are regugalary used by the locals. There is ample parking on the nearby roads and streets.

 

Travel: Ashleworth is about 17 miles from the centre of Stroud, heading North, going via Gloucester and Maisemore. The post code is GL19 4JG. The map (OS) grid reference 813256. Might be worth considering car sharing. Haven’t  decided if I will cycle there, or take my car, if the latter, then I would be more than happy to give someone a lift, I’ve got a bike rack.

 

The Route:  The Newent Loop, is about 33 miles, it has an easy elevation, so as you might say, it’s an  ‘ideal Tue club ride’! Starting and finishing by the Hub. Please refer to RWGPS,  roughly this will be our direction of travel, going in an anti-clockwise direction.

Vittles: There are no obvious café on route, apart from Newent and that this stage we are not that far from the finish line, so am proposing that we have our afternoon break at Ashleworth…..at the end of the ride.

 

Weather: Looks a bit mixed. A waterproof top might be a useful garb to have with you!

 

Please get back to me if you have any queries.

 

 

Kind regards,
