Hemel Hempstead Pacey Purples

Meeting at the cycle racks by The Papermill pub, we will set off on a circular route around the quiet country lanes returning back to The Paper Mill for refreshments. Car parking is free along London Road or in the sainsburys or Apsley Mills retail car park. Pacey Purples will average between 13-16 miles at a pace of 10-12mph. Designed to be a shorter distance/faster pace for the evening rides this summer. If you are comfortably riding with blazing blues, you will have no problems joining these rides. We will do the similar circuit each fortnight and try to push ourselves a little faster each time. We ride at the pace of the slowest rider and always wait at the top of hills so no one gets left behind. We will cycle back to the Paper Mill pub for well earned drinks afterwards, so don't forget to bring some money. Please remember to check your bike is in good working order, gears and brakes all working, and tyres pumped up. Don't forget to bring a spare inner tube and tools to fix a puncture should you be unlucky enough to get one. Don't worry there's enough of us to help you out should you be the unfortunate one. My rides are weather dependent, if I feel it's raining too hard, too cold/miserable/icy/snowy/windy etc then I will cancel, for your safety as well as enjoyment of the ride. If you want to cancel for any reason, please call or text me on 07538797197 Many thanks Liz :)
