This is a hillier Green ride than usual, but we will be doing it at the usual Green pace of 8-10 mph and everyone is welcome to take the hills at their own pace. It will suit Green riders who are confident but not necessarily fast.

We will be heading out to Offley Hoo via Peters Green and Ley Green and then back via Lilley Bottom and Tea Green

The route is mainly on very pretty quiet lanes.

We will be stopping for refreshments at The Barn at Offley Hoo.

Rides take account of current Covid guidance. We will be cycling in smaller groups so that we are maintaining appropriate physical distancing. (2m in single file or 1m+ if doubled up) You will need to bring 2 spare inner tubes and any equipment you would need to change them (pump; tyre levers). In order to maintain social distancing we are not able to help out with any mechanical problems at the moment or share equipment so please ensure your bike is in good working order, and that you have a contact number for someone (or taxi) who can pick you up if you have a mechanical problem that you are unable to deal with. We won’t abandon you but our ability to help is limited. Helmets are compulsory on this ride and you also must carry a mask (you do not need to wear it whilst cycling but may need it for the coffee stop or if you require first aid assistance). Please also bring a small bottle of sanitiser for personal use, money/card for coffee and of course water. Apologies for this long list of rules, but it is really important to us to keep both riders and leaders safe and once the logistics are out of the way we can get on and enjoy the ride in the knowledge that we are doing it as safely as we possibly can!

We never leave anyone behind
