Through the Mersey Tunnel to the Eureka @ Meet at Ainsdale Police Station
Mar 20 @ 9:00 am – 9:15 am

 

As the November ride was cancelled due to the bad weather, a delayed 2015 ride for the 3rd Sunday of the month

The annual November ride through the Mersey tunnel, across the Wirral to the famous Eureka cycle cafe. A run across the Wirral to New Brighton ( maybe an ice cream stop somewhere) and then back through the Tunnel.

Recommended to have lights (at the least a rear light for the trip through the tunnel) as it may well be going dark by the time we are coming home.

See here for a description of the 2014 ride.
