Redesmere Ride via Jodrell Bank

Redesmere Ride via Jodrell Bank

It was a bright but rather cool day on Sunday for the SCCC Redesmere Ride. We met up at Davenport Green. There was some excitement among the ‘boys’ at the start as Paul turned up on his nice new bike! We headed out into Cheshire by skirting around Bramhall village. Along Blossoms Lane, then past the Deanwater. We then headed out through Mottram St Andrew. We then turned right onto Chelford Road and make our way to the National trust…

Peover Heath Autumn Ride

Peover Heath Autumn Ride

Autumn has finally arrived weather-wise. So it was on a cool but bright Sunday morning that seventeen hardy Stockport Community Cycling Club riders met at Davenport Green for our longer Peover Heath Autumn ride out around the Cheshire lanes. This is a ride we usually undertake in the spring – Peover Heath – so it would be interesting to cover the route in a different season. Julia was leading the ride today, and she led us out through the streets…

Soon there were over thirty of us. The photos are…

Goostrey – Again

Goostrey – Again

Having returned from our Celtic Trail tour the previous evening we decided to quickly get back to normality and join Stockport Community Cycling Club on their Sunday ride to Goostrey. The club regularly visits Goostrey (see here, here and here for example) and this usually doesn’t involve hills, but Andy S was leading this one … so would he find one somewhere? We met by Wilmslow Leisure Centre and on a warm sunny day there was a healthy group of…

Middlewich 2016

Middlewich 2016

Today was Stockport Community Cycling Club‘s Middlewich 2016; and for Sarah what a difference a year makes! This time last year this was our last longer ride before our JOGLE cycle tour. I led the Middlewich 2015 ride while Sarah sat it out – literally – for she had just broken her foot (which resulted in her being unable to cycle the JOGLE). Thankfully, that was then and this is now. So no broken foot this year meant Sarah was able to lead seventeen of us…
