No ride

V cold icy conditions.  No ride.

Queen Elizabeth Hospital

A large group on a very cold day.  Fourteen of us rode via Selly Oak to the hospital for coffee, while John and Hilary took two newcomers on a separate introductory ride.  

The route is here.

Digbeth

Very cold, but turned out to be not as icy as we feared.  Seven riders led by John Porter on an interesting route to a cafe in Digbeth recommended by Bennie.

The route is here.

Maypole

Very windy but dry and bright morning.  Eight hardy souls out for a slightly longer ride to Maypole.  Got very cold on the return leg. The route is here

Cannon Hill Park

Cold and wet for our first outing of 2015.  Eight riders for a short trip to Cannon Hill Park, where the rain got heavier during our coffee stop, so we returned by the same short route - here.
