Club Ride Saturday 14th November 2026

Meet and depart

Forecast has a risk of frost and ice overnight so a delayed start this week to allow for a thaw and enough time for riders to get to the start. Please check your own conditions locally before making the decision on whether to ride.

Meet at 10:50 for an 11:00 departure from the main car park in Brookley Road.

Planned route is a little shorter than usual this time of year at 94Km. No planned coffee stop, but we do pass through Burley at around 84Km if the group decide that one is desirable. Route is anti-clockwise which will hopefully suit those from the south and west and give options to peel off before the return to Brock.

Winter riding

This week continue with winter riding protocol. Please come prepared with:

  • Mudguards fitted and of the type that give protection to following riders not just yourselves.
  • Sturdy tyres.
  • Warm clothing

As temperatures drop, we’ll keep the pace steady to avoid getting hot and sweaty in winter jerseys, then becoming cold if a mechanical means a long stop.

 

Route and coffee stop

  • Distance:
  • Climbing: 690M (According to Plot a Route, Ride With GPS says 573M so take your pick!
  • Coffee stop: None planned but option for Burley at 84Km or ride end in Brockenhurst.
