Hello again folks
We are planning to meet and leave the Old Crown PHesket newmarket at 10.20 this Sat morning and cycle down to Greystoke Cycle Cafe. Arriving around approx 11.15-30 . After a drink etc we're planning a nice little detour back to Hesket Newmarket around Skelton etc making approx 25 miles in total. This return route gives a nice downhillish start and nice return flatish route with quiet roads.....hope to see you then .
Steve Emery
PS please reply to Steve stevelynnemery@aol.com with questions re the ride…
Note from Annie ...there may be those who prefer to start and finish their ride from here ....in which case obviously the start here is as above if you're joining Steve's jaunt and then returning with whoever else doing the same .
LADIES CYCLING
We are currently contacting all those who have expressed an interest in Ladies Cycling Groups. These will probably run on a Saturday from the Cycle Cafe and midweek - possibly Wednesdays from the Cafe or Arragons depending on preference. These are runs designed to encourage more people to get out cycling so don't feel you wont be able to keep up ...just come along and see how you go ..there are plenty of routes from the cafe which are fairly flat and quiet - and if you don't try you'll never know ...it could be easier than you think ! .
MOUNTAIN BIKING
This happens on a Tuesday evening and is organised by Phil from Arragons
FAMILY CYCLING
If you're a keen cyclist yourself but are wondering just how to enthuse any younger members of your family - then maybe the way forward is letting them ride with you and with other kids of similar age. They may even not notice the gradients as they make new friends and become accustomed to the rules of the road under your own safe guidance. It seems Saturday is a popular day and the 2nd Sunday of the month aswell , when the cafe is open . There are some lovely circular routes around neighbouring villages and a swim at Greystoke Pool at the end would be a fitting reward . Please contact us for details and if you'd like to be included in the loop.
