Watford Cycle Hub: Meriden Meander Through the Woods

This varied route proves just how quickly you can get away from tower blocks & the bustle of major access routes! Within a matter of minutes you'll be riding along quiet country lanes, past cottages, down tracks, through wooded areas, touching the edge of a golf course and discovering quiet country hostelries!

This is a lovely route for everybody of any age, who loves getting off the beaten track away 'from it all' to discover pastures new...It's also a perfect mini-adventure for children. :)

Your bike should be in good working order for the ride. If in doubt, bring it along to us in the days before to check & fix it for you. :) Please check your tyres are pumped to the correct pressure & brakes are working the day before the ride.

If you're running late on the day, please call Watford Cycle Hub on: 01923 223994 - they will then relay a message to the Ride Leader Team. We may be able to wait for you - if we know you are on your way! :)

Please bring two spare inner tubes. Changing the inner tube is faster than fixing a puncture with a puncture repair kit. If you get a puncture on the ride - we will help you fix it! :) Watford Cycle Hub sell refurbished inner tubes for £1 (no patches); 50p (patched). New inner tubes are £4-6. Address: Watford Cycle Hub, The Pavilion, Chaffinch Lane, Watford. WD18 9QD. Website: http://www.watfordcyclehub.org.uk

Please also bring money for the cafe if you want to buy a drink or have a cooked breakfast or early lunch at this week's cafe stop after the ride. :)
