Quote from Donald PK on 23 July 2025, 15:49This Saturdays destination is KJ’s Bakery at Grantown
The route is approximately 77 mile with an elevation gain of 4,00ft, a longer day than normal but making most of the weather forecast which is reasonable at the moment.
There are plenty of options to shorten early on in the ride if folk wish.
The planned refreshment stop is KJ’s but there are other options in Grantown if folk prefer.
Grantown is approximately 40 miles with little in between so please ensure you have sufficient food and fluids.
We ask members to pre-select groups, either 1, 2 or 3, based on average speed.
(Please note speeds are a rough guide and may vary up or down on the day depending on conditions). We will endeavour to accommodate your group selection , dependent on rider numbers and availability of ride leaders. For the safety of all riders, we operate a “no drop” policy on our Saturday rides.
Group 1: 16-18mph
Group 2: 14-16mph
Group 3: 13-15mph
Please meet at Fairways roundabout, just off the distributor road at 08:50 for a 09:00 departure, we will be departing sharp. Details of the route can be found below.
