Here is the proposed A group Sunday rides for February leaving the Plough at 9.15 am for Blackgate Lane, Tarleton at 9.30. (Also shown on “Calendar”)
Where ever possible there will be a shorter alternative for those who do not want to go the full distance or are not on top form. Distances are approximate and I suppose they will be corrected by those who have Garmins etc. Rain, ice, high winds etc may force a change of route. Risk assessment on the day.
Distances are from the Plough to the Café stop.
