M and S, Longbridge

Richard led sixteen riders, encouraged by bright sunshine and undeterred by bitter cold, via the canal to M and S, Longbridge.  An interesting route, especially on the way back, and new to many - hence remarks indicating that several of us had no idea where we were.

The route is here.

M and S, Moseley

At last some reasonable weather, cold but dry and calm, and as we got back to Rowheath blue sky and sunshine.  

Eighteen riders led by John P to the café at M and S in Moseley.

The route is here.

No ride today

We have managed short rides with small numbers in fairly awful weather conditions for the past few Saturdays.  Today, though, we decided that there would be no pleasure in battling against rain, cold and strong wind, so a small group had coffee at Rowheath before heading home.

Even in winter, it is rare for our rides to be so disrupted by the weather.  We hope for better luck next week. 

The Potting Shed, Lydiate Ash

The third Saturday in a row where cold wet weather has put off many regular riders.  John P led a group of eight to the Potting Shed at Lydiate Ash.
