In the hope of some brighter weather over the weekend, the Forge Ride will head out on a brisk Seaford loop, while the Sunday Social sees Paget return from Spain to lead the ride to Cadence.

Keep in mind that the off-road rides kick off next week from Bake Out, with Strade Bianchi at the Black Lion after.

Plus, we’ve got Wanderers in Spain – and a caption competition to finish.

🗓️ Mark your diary for the off-road ride

A quick reminder that the first of our monthly off-road rides will be rolling out from Bake Out, Lewes, next week (7 March).

All members are welcome, and groups will be organised according to experience and ability. Offer a Wheel to a non-member friend and claim your reward if they join.

Keep in mind, too, the option of meeting up at the Black Lion, Lewes, afterwards, to watch some of the action from Strade Bianchi.

PS. We’re still looking for a Club Secretary. Please put your hand up to help if you can; it really isn’t much of an undertaking.

🌞 Wanderers in Spain

A 2:45 am alarm, cabin-luggage only, and hire bikes sorted before they’d even landed, the Wanderers’ February escape to Spain got off to a slick start.

Within hours of departure, the group was tackling Montgó’s sweeping climb and the quiet “camis” around Deñia. The early flight proved itself more than worth it. Read Paget’s full account on the website.

Into the “Camis”

Before you go…Caption Competition.

Of course, it had to be…

Cycling holiday, right? I’m sure we’ve forgotten something.

Till next time,
