SCCC Peover Heath Ride – The December version

SCCC Peover Heath Ride – The December version

The Peover Heath ride has usually provided the opening longer ride for the year. This year, however, it brought the curtain down on the 2017 longer rides, which this year have stretched into December. The temperatures have been falling rapidly recently, however, this Sunday provided a little chink of slightly warmer weather. This possible last opportunity to enjoy reasonable cycling weather brought out twenty Stockport Community Cycling Club members to the start at Davenport Green. I was leading the ride…

Lower Withington

Lower Withington

It was a fine autumn Sunday that saw some thirty Stockport Community Cycling Club members meet at Bramhall Library for a cycle ride to Lower Withington.

The ride started in the car park near Wilmslow Leisure Centre. Being sensible, I drove to the starting point. It was obviously going to be another lovely day as we gathered at the start. We left the leisure…

Middlewich 2017

Middlewich 2017

Cycle rides to Middlewich are becoming a bit of a jinx for Sarah. She had been due to lead today, but following a serious fall on yesterday’s Women on Wheels ride this was not possible. And she has form having to miss the same ride a couple of years ago (A tale of a broken foot and a ride to Middlewich). Thankfully, Andy S stepped in to lead instead, and I was the back-leader. It was going to be a challenge…
