Cheadle Hulme Circular Afternoon Ride

Cheadle Hulme Circular Afternoon Ride

After the previous weekends’ snowy ride to Lymm, it was pleasing to arrive in far more pleasant weather at Adswood Park. This was the start point for the Stockport Community Cycling Club Cheadle Hulme Circular afternoon ride. Originally the ride was going to include a section along the new Ladybrook Valley path (hence the initially being titled ‘Ladybook Valley’). Unfortunately, the path hasn’t been completed and Andy S, therefore, put together this alternative route. Andy Sykes was the leader of this ride,…

Bruntwood Hall

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.

Through Cheadle Hulme, then Bruntwood Park. Just after leaving Bruntwood Park, one of the group had a puncture, so there were some emergency repairs before we continued….

Training Ride

Training Ride

Tonight we went out on our regular circuit through Cheadle Hulme, Gatley, Wythenshawe, Northenden, West Didsbury, Heaton Mersey, Stockport and Davenport. We cycled about 17 miles through all kinds of weather. It was sunny when we left, then went through rain, hail, winds and back to sunshine by the time we got home – what a real mixture that was! Our little group of riders grew from 3 at the beginning, up to 7 in total. We all did a…
