Bournville - Cannon Hill Park - Northfield

Cannon Hill Park via the towpath and Oakfield Road, back via the Rea Valley to Northfield, where Ann and Bennie entertained twelve of us to coffee, cake, mince pies and panettone.  Many thanks to them both for their hospitality.

Bournville - Earlswood

A longer ride than usual, led by Carl, to Earlswood. The route took us through Rowheath Park and Cotteridge Park to Lifford Lane, then by the reservoir to the Stratford canal.  We rode along the towpath (some of it very muddy) to the Drawbridge near Whitlock's End.  The coffee break was at Akamba, the African garden centre in Tythe Barn Lane.  We returned on road, past the ford at Tidbury Green, then through lanes to Primrose Hill and Kings Norton Park. Fourteen riders.
