Sparsholt loop

IF YOU ARE BOOKED ONTO THIS RIDE, PLEASE SEE YOUR MESSAGES FOR ADDITIONAL COVID RELATED INFORMATION.
We shall be starting at River Park Leisure Centre and gain confidence in urban cycling by travelling out of Winchester via Weeke before reaching the countryside. We will be visiting the quiet hamlet of Dean, then a short climb to the edge of Sparsholt and cycle towards Littleton and Headbourne Worthy before our return back to our start point. Please bring your own drink and snack as there will be a refreshment stop on route.

Please check your bike is in good working order with tyres pumped to the correct pressure and conduct a pre-ride safety check on your bike. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=V66yzbrZxvY
Dress appropriately for the weather and wearing a cycle helmet is strongly recommended. Please bring the usual kit in case of puncture; inner tube, tyre levers and pump. If the weather is dull lights for your bike.

There will be plenty of time to chat and rest if we need to, albeit socially distanced. We'll always ride at the pace of the slowest rider so that no-one is left behind.

There is no charge for car parking at Hillier Way car park for the first three hours.

Please feel free to message me if you have any questions.

First-timers welcome!
