Both on and off road rides this Saturday 20th May

Saturday 20th May

I will be leading an off-road MTB ride this Saturday – aimed at the stronger Juniors and adults, we will be hacking along the Woldingham loop at a brisk pace. The clue is in the name – it’s a circuit out and back to Woldingham, once we get the woods near West Wickham is totally off road with some decent descents and a couple of tricky ascents. Approx. 30- 35 miles suitable for both MTB’s and CX bikes.

Those that prefer the tarmac should join one of Dulwich Saturday ride groups.

Meet at the velodrome at 9 am – aim to be scoffing chips in Café Paradou by 1pm.

Parents/Guardian note - there will not be any coaches on the steady ride, however there are loads of responsible adults who I'm sure will look after your charges. You need to be contactable and able to rescue your charge should the need arise. Riders should introduce themselves to the group at the start.

As ever, preparation is key, do a proper bike check prior to turning up (including brakes) ensure you have inner tubes, money, drink, some food and your rescuer's telephone number on a piece of paper in your back pocket. HHYCC or DP and BC membership required.

Just a plug to the youth that the Harry Must resumes hostilities this Thursday at Cudham. First rider off at 7.45pm. You'll need a parental consent form though. No form, no ride.

Just to confirm, first rider off at 7.45pm. I had originally put 7.30pm (that's the start time for the final two events). Apols.

The Harry Must event this Thursday 8th June is CANCELLED. Sorry folks.

The three polling stations on the course add to the risk. There's a polling station a few hundred yards from the start/finish, one in Knockholt and another in Pratt's Bottom. The additional cars and pedestrians around these areas, specifically Knockholt, make it too risky to proceed.

The next round, Thursday 15th June, will be the next round. First rider off at 7.45pm.

The Harry Must starts up again this week! We're at Cudham on Thursday. First rider off at 7.45pm. No need to sign up online - just turn up. You don't even need a TT bike but you will need a signed parental consent form. See you there!

I assume you mean if you're U-18...?  Might struggle to get my parents to sign.

Indeed!
