It was a fine Autumn morning that saw a healthy number of Stockport Community Cycling Club riders meet at Bramhall library for this Gawsworth 2018 cycle ride. Indeed, there were enough riders that we split into two groups. Sarah and I would lead the second group. The route began with us weaving our way through Bramhall and Woodford.

When we have a bank holiday, one of our favourite activities, surprise, surprise, is to go on a bike ride. Sadly, Sarah was working. Thankfully, Andy S wasn’t. We met at the top of Torkington Road on the entrance to the Middlewood Way. It was a fine sunny day. We followed NCN Route 55 through Higher Poynton.

From here we headed up Buxton Old Road and through Disley. We…
We met at Timperley for this Stockport Community Cycling Club longer ride to Sutton. For a change this promised to be a cycle in some fine weather. Unfortunately Sarah has been struggling with fatigue, and in spite of joining in with the clubs Abney Park ride the previous day and feeling fine, wisely decided to give this one a miss. The ride started by cycling through Altrincham and Hale. Soon we were out on the country lanes around Ashley. And…
