The weather is changing. As jackets are back, we are now clearly moving from summer to autumn, and meeting at Woodsmoor for this Stockport Community Cycling Club ride out to Woodbank Park was a chilly eye opener That said, while it was a cool morning, the weather was fine, and it promised to warm up later in the day. Our route began by leaving Woodsmoor along Moorland Road. Then heading over to Offerton. In Offerton, we cut through the passageway…
It was a cold Saturday morning that greeted the first group of Stockport Community Cycling Club riders arriving at Woodsmoor for this cycle ride out to Poynton.

It wasn’t even Sarah’s return SCCC ride, she was back leader on the recent Alderley Edge ride. This cycle ride out to Bollington was, however, my return SCCC ride! I was leading this club ride today and Sarah was the back-leader. I had put this…
