Manchester Airport Circular 2022

Manchester Airport Circular 2022

This Manchester Airport Circular 2022 cycle ride seemed a familiar route. Yet, it wasn’t as familiar as we thought. We had previously cycled a paired-down version of this route as an afternoon ride and an alternative route starting from Bramhall. We met in Heald Green on a pleasant August morning and set off along Finney Lane. After navigating our way through Heald Green we reached Handforth and cycled down Clay Lane towards Styal. When we turned into Moss Lane we…

Manchester City Centre

Manchester City Centre

This Stockport Community Cycling Club ride had been affected by Covid even before we arrived at the start. It’s ride leaders having to be swapped about. It meant that I lead this second group of the day, and Sarah, originally a ride-leader, was now the back-leader.

Setting off, we began by navigating our way through Woodsmoor and Bramhall. Soon we arrived at Bramhall Park. After cycling through the park,…

Portland Basin 2022

Portland Basin 2022

This Portland Basin 2022 Stockport Community Cycling Club ride followed our annual AGM. It was our first following the sad death of the founder of the club, Jim Court. Business details out of the way, many of the attendees were keen to get out cycling. A ride out to Portland Basin has become a tradition following our AGM’s. It was a cloudy though fine day for it. Graham was leading the ride (and I took up back-leader duties). So, he…
