Ok right here we go: the plan is to meet at THE DUKES OF PORTLAND pub, Lach Dennis at 10.30am. This will then give us a couple of hours to get to Gun Hill before they close the roads, get a good spot and get the atmosphere in. It also gives some contingency time in case there is a puncture and a chance to fill bottles at Congleton Garden Centre if needed on the way.I'd like to ask that everyone (other than Chris Buckley, and for those who didn't see him in his atire last year I won't spoil the surprise) wears club kit. It's a great opportunity to show off the colours of the club, hopefully on national TV.I would like the ride to be relaxed and easy, it should be a good day out on the bike together having a laugh at a nice easy pace.The ride is about 30 miles and once we hit Congleton it does get very lumpy (in fact I hate the climb out of Congleton, it is never ending), we'll try to re-group as much as possible. Hopefully all being well afterwards we could call in at Astbury Garden Centre on the way home but no official plans.

Great ride and Blog Woody, Fantastic turn out and a challenging ride for my first ride in nearly 3 weeks. Finished with 80 miles dead on the clock and 3,600 ft climbing. The Cafe was also a good Choice and another new one to me, free coffee refills too, winner!.

I see you also got your mug shot on the box too.
