  • Snowy fun 2019

    What a fab weekend of riding in the snow. It arrived Friday night which was perfect timing for the Saturday ride, it has to be said only a few hardy souls rocked up to brave the cold!

We hit Leith Hill, taking in 'Touch Sensitive', 'Wild wood,' then down to Friday Street & 'Soul mining'.  Climbed up Holmbury hill & did the all weather 'Parklife' followed by 'Telegraph Road' then stopping off for cheesy chips & tea at the excellent Royal Oak pub. We then carried on back up Leith hill & onto Redlands woods & 'Psychedelic warlord' …
