[Richard Schofield]

Hi Laurie,

I'm looking forward to joining the ride on Sunday. Is it okay to invite non-members along or would you prefer to keep it exclusive? 

Please let me know.

All the best,

Richard

We did this route back in 2007 when it was run as the Grand Prix de Somerset with added 'race' graded sections. The ride this year is more of an extended Group Ride with a lunch stop on Clevedon seafront before the return leg, we'll see how competitive things get though. We'll look to cover the distance at a decent pace, waiting for the group to come back together as usual at the top of climbs but ride at 'tempo' otherwise. All being well we should be back in Bath for about 4pm-ish. If you can't make a full day of riding why not join the start of the ride and then find a suitable point to cut off and return back to Bath.

Instead we'll meet at the Society Cafe in Kingsmead Square http://www.society-cafe.com/ They've agreed to get the coffee machine warmed up so that riders can start arriving from 9am onwards for a pre-ride caffeine hit. There are a number of options for food in Clevedon so we can decide when we get there.
