The Stockport Community Cycling Club Halls Route 2018 was a modified version of a regular SCCC ride, though interestingly, it hasn’t actually been on the calendar for the last few years (see here for the 2015 edition). The route passes by, or near to, a number of historically interesting old halls within the Stockport borough. We met at Ceracycloan, where staff were interested in showing us a few new cycling items. Then it was on to the ride itself. Graham…
Stockport Community Cycling Club‘s first ride of 2018 was to Bruntwood Hall. Sarah was due to lead this ride, while I would be the back-leader. We met in Woodsmoor on a cold Saturday morning, but the colder weather didn’t seem to put off members as they just kept on arriving. It quickly became clear that we would need to split into two groups as we eventually reached thirty-one club members. Therefore, I would lead one group, and Sarah the other. …

The day also brought the first biting winter weather for the club rides. The weather forecast wasn’t inspiring, and if Sarah wasn’t due to lead the ride we might have thought about giving it a miss. That said, in the end, we were glad we made the effort. With the temperature barely…
Saturday was the SCCC Tour de Stockport ride, which is a ride that we last did in 2015 (see that post here). We met upon Lowlands Road near Woodsmoor Station. There was a good turn out with quite a few new riders. We set off along part of the Fred Perry way making our way towards Stockport Georgians Playing Fields. We hadn’t got very far before one of the riders realised that they had dropped something and went back to…
It was a fine day as a large group of Stockport Community Cycling Club members met near Woodsmoor Rail Station ready for Graham’s cycle ride to Bruntwood Park. I was back leading. We began by cycling towards Davenport. And then through Adswood. On our way to Edgeley. Passing through Sykes’s Reservoir. For awhile we picked up NCN Route 62 – the Trans Pennine Trail. The route follows the River Mersey. Eventually we turned off and made our way towards Cheadle….
