SCCC’s Soggy Sunday Cycle Ride to Henbury

SCCC’s Soggy Sunday Cycle Ride to Henbury

In our last post, which detailed our Wilmslow Half Marathon exploits, Sarah wrote how I had been feeling a little unwell for the last few weeks. This virus continued exerting its effect throughout this last week. In the early part I struggled and then as I began to recover Sarah started to struggle. It has played havoc with our Greater Manchester Marathon training. Unfortunately Sarah was still feeling unwell and so was unable to come along to today’s Stockport Community Cycling Club ride to Henbury. In such…

Not Quite Cotebrook

Not Quite Cotebrook

For ride leaders, probably the most difficult part of planning a ride is finding somewhere suitable for a lunch stop. The latest Stockport Community Cycling Club ride to Cotebrook certainly lived up to this. Sarah was down to lead this ride.

Longford Park Easy

Longford Park Easy

When there is a Stockport Community Cycling Club longer ride, the preceding day there is usually an easier family afternoon ride. Tomorrow I (Andy) am leading the longer ride to Peover Heath and we don’t normally participate in the family ride. However Sarah decided that on this occasion it would be good training for our upcoming marathon to go along to the Longford Park Easy ride. Thus our Valentines Day day begun with Sarah and I volunteering at Bramhall Parkrun then completing a 6.5 miles training…

Halls Route

Halls Route

The Halls Route has become a regular event on the Stockport Community Cycling Club calendar. Sadly Sarah hasn’t been feeling too well for the last few days and wasn’t up to tackling this ride. A shame since she has never cycled the Halls Route …yet.    A healthy group (pun intended) of club members met at the bottom of Vernon Park. Leaving the park we set off in the direction of Bredbury and passed the first of Stockport’s halls – Bredbury…
