๐ด August? More Like Awheelgust! ๐ด
We're back in the saddle with another fantastic month of rides!
This time the peloton is being expertly led by the newly repaired Sam Smith, who's officially back in action. Meanwhile, Sam Messenger has been firmly instructed to put her feet up while we keep her wrapped in cotton wool and safely away from anything remotely accident-shaped. We're hoping her only spills from now on involve coffee or beer?
Kicking things off is our ever-popular Social Ride on Saturday 08th, followed by a special Eclipse Ride on the 12th, where we'll head up to Brill Hill to catch the celestial show.
Then we've got a brilliant selection of rides hosted by the wonderful Ros, including a Thursday evening gravel adventure and a Friday Women's Only Social Ride. Finally a Sunday session on the Mountain Bikes!!!
As always, a huge thank you to Trek Bicester and their amazing team for hosting us.
