Casual Road Ride to the South coast Sat 6th March
Submitted by mikeb on Wed, 03/03/2010 - 20:21
Todays ride is endurance based and would suit members looking for a steady pace with some miles. This ride is a favourite of Richard Collin so has everything you need flats, undulations and hills. Hopefully I can remember the complete route, but what I do goes through some pretty villages and country back lanes until we get to the coast. The only real challenge is Harting Down and we all know what that entails - and coming home its back over the easy way. So a solid distance ride but comfortable pace.
Event Date: 06 Mar 2010 (Sat), 8.45am for 9am Start
Meeting Place: Weyhill Car Park, Haselmere, Ride Leader: mikeb
Ascent: Harting Down is the only real climb, Tea Stop: Yes Bosham
Avg Speed/Pace Style: Casual 24kph, Distance: 80km+
Route:
Todays ride will head to Bosham from Haslemere working our way through the Milland valley and over Harting Down (North face) then winding our way down to Bosham for tea/coffee and back through Compton - over Harting the easy side then back to Haslemere through Treyford and Milland.
Special Notes:
Any queries, please email the ride leader mikeb.
