A smaller than usual turnout of Stockport Community Cycling Club members met at Frodsham for the Delamere 2019 ride. Perhaps, many were put off by the predicted 50-60mph winds. Sarah was today’s ride leader, while I was the back-leader. You will note that the majority of the photos (most of which were taken by myself), are from behind the riders – it was just too windy to get ahead of any riders on this ride! Indeed, as we left Frodsham and…

There had been nearly 300 runners at Sale Water Parkrun which had preceded…
This Tatton Park 2018 cycle ride was the latest in what has become a bit of tradition, a beginning/end of year cycle ride to Tatton Park – see here for 2014, 2016 and 2017 versions. It brought down the curtain on another fine year of cycling.
