We launch from the Rose and Crown in Ivinghoe at the times indicated. As always, please bring your chosen route with you.
Meet at the Rose and Crown for more tea, cake and cycling. Pace set by the slowest rider…who will it be tomorrow? Come and find out, it could be you!
Three routes for Sunday designed by Mr Dave “undulating” Bembridge.
Please do bring a copy of your chosen route with you.
Winter kit order is now open, due to close on 7th November. No more orders until the spring, so if you are hoping for any Velos kit for Xmas, or need some warmer Lycra to get you out this winter, now is your last chance. See the posting on the Rear Hub for details about how to order.
Tea riders, the weather is looking damp tomorrow but the tea ride continues. Meet at the pub at 10. See you there.
Two routes but three rides this week.
9am start, ad-hoc route looping back to the R&C to join the 10am group
10am start, 32 miles to Markyate and back
Many thanks to Mr Dave “The Brave” Bembridge for sending in the routes.
You can ride it if you like.
It’s got a basket, a bell that rings and
Things to make it look good.
I’d give it to you if I could, but I borrowed it.
You’re the kind of girl that fits in with my world.
I’ll give you anything, ev’rything if you want things.
I’ve got a cloak. It’s a bit of a joke.
There’s a tear up the front. It’s red and black.
I’ve had it for months.
If you think it could look good, then I guess it should.
You’re the kind of girl that fits in with my world.
I’ll give you anything, ev’rything if you want things.
I know a mouse, and he hasn’t got a house.
I don’t know why. I call him Gerald.
He’s getting rather old, but he’s a good mouse.
You’re the kind of girl that fits in with my world.
I’ll give you anything, ev’rything if you want things.
I’ve got a clan of gingerbread men.
Here a man, there a man, lots of gingerbread men.
Take a couple if you wish. They’re on the dish.
You’re the kind of girl that fits in with my world.
I’ll give you anything, ev’rything if you want things.
I know a room of musical tunes.
Some rhyme, some ching. Most of them are clockwork.
Let’s go into the other room and make them work.
Nothing like a bit of Pink Floyd on a Friday evening to get you in the mood……
FOR THE TEA RIDE … or course……
Leaving the Rose & Crown, Ivinghoe, 10am EVERY Saturday, come rain, shine, snow, hail, hell or high water (although you might want to bring wellies that day), whether there’s a website/facebook post or not (sorry… sometimes we’re not quite as organised as we appear to be …)
Oh! And it ain’t all girls – not by a long chalk!!
As fast as the slowest rider, always stopping for tea & cake. #prioritiessorted
9am Start, 45 mile loop to Winslow
10am start, 29 mile route to Brickhill and back
10am start, 23 mile flat route
As always, please bring your chosen route with you.
For those wanting a taste of some off-piste cycling, don’t forget there’s now a Monday evening not-for-road-bikes ride leaving Pitstone roundabout at 7pm. This is beginner level “off-road”, roads, tracks, canal paths, nothing too testing – good lights essential this time of year!
If you would like a more testing off-road experience then there is local off-road group who depart from Pitstone Roundabout at 7:30pm each Thursday. If you plan to join them, please post your intentions on the Velos Rear Hub Facebook group.
As we enter October we are blessed again with a relatively decent weather forecast for Sunday. Here are your choice of rides –
9am start, 44 miles – replay of the Women’s ToB route from earlier this year
10am start, 29 miles Markyate via Toms
As usual, please bring a copy of your chosen route with you. We depart from the Rose and Crown at the indicated time so please arrive a few minutes before then to ensure you have time for any last minute adjustments to your steed.
Meet at the Rose and Crown at 10 am for more Tea, cake and cycling adventures. See you there.
