A slightly different route this time to Crumbs in Watton. A Red so we will aim for around 12 mph over the full ride. We will head out towards Knebworth, Aston and Hebbing End before stopping at Crumbs for a cuppa. This will be at about 18 miles. We will return via Datchworth, Nup End and Codicote.
Gravel bikes and thicker tyres very welcome if you are happy covering the distance/pace.
Hills always at your own pace. We will regroup at the top. It is still quite warm so please bring plenty to drink.
Start: Outside Loafing (The Bakery) in Wheathampstead at 9.30am
Please check your emails/texts before setting off, in case of cancellation.
Any questions, just drop me a message:)

The important bike bits:
Please ensure your bike is in good working order and you have an emergency backup/taxi number to call on in case of issues that cannot be resolved.
Before the ride:
- check your bike the night before (Tyre pressure will go down when your bike has not been used or from use!)
- have 2 spare inner tubes, tyre levers and correct pump
- Money for coffee/emergencies.
- Helmet (compulsory on ride)
- Water and a snack, just in case
- Appropriate bright and warm clothing (Rain/Sun – hopefully the latter)
- Lights (not essential but a plus in winter)
