It was another healthy group of Stockport Community Cycling Club riders that met at Bramhall Library on a fine Sunday morning for this Middlewich 2018 longer ride. This ride has become somewhat of a May tradition for the SCCC longer rides (click here for the 2015, 2016 and 2017 versions of the ride). Today, Sarah was leading the ride, and I was the back-leader. Leaving Bramhall, we set off towards Woodford. We turned on to Lees Lane near Wilmslow. This took…
Stockport Community Cycling Club‘s first ride of 2018 was to Bruntwood Hall. Sarah was due to lead this ride, while I would be the back-leader. We met in Woodsmoor on a cold Saturday morning, but the colder weather didn’t seem to put off members as they just kept on arriving.

Leaving Bramhall we set off for Mottram St Andrew. We turned onto Mill Lane. And then we began the…
Autumn has finally arrived weather-wise.

This is a ride we usually undertake in the spring – Peover Heath – so it would be interesting to cover the route in a different season. Julia was leading the ride today, and she led us out through the streets…
