Charity Coffee and Cake ride from FBC

Starting from the FBC centre, Finchampstead, this is one of 5 Breeze rides today all heading to Louise Weald's house in Wokingham for a fund-raising coffee morning in aid of Sue Ryder Hospice (in memory of Louise's Mum.) Coffee and home-made cakes will be served in Louise's garden - in return for a voluntary CASH donation to the charity. It will be a fairly easy ride and a good chance to meet other Breeze riders over a long coffee break.

Our route has a mixture of roads, country lanes and cycleways. It is 15 miles to the coffee break, then just 5 miles back to FBC afterwards. We will start out along Nashgrove Lane, up Blagrove Lane and down Magnolia Way to Wokingham, then go through St. Paul's Churchyard, along Holt Lane to Cantley Park. A bit of cycleway, then on road along Warren House Rd to the Straight Mile and then we'll turn off and follow the pretty lanes around Hurst and Dinton. We'll take the cycleway along the new Northern Distributor Road to get back to Wokingham then only a short stretch of road to Louise's house to enjoy our coffee and cakes. If you want to ride back to FBC after coffee - we will go along Rances Lane, over the level crossing to Heathlands and then on the new temporary road to Ludgrove/Luckley Road and Evendons Lane.

Cycle helmets are compulsory and please bring a bottle of water and carry a spare inner tube to fit your own tyres. Please remember to bring a CASH for your coffee and cake! (If you forget Louise can give you the link to her Just Giving page to make a donation to the charity.)

To avoid unnecessary delays, please check the night before that your tyres are correctly inflated (makes cycling easier!) both brakes working, and chain oiled.

We never leave anyone behind
