Tonight’s Advanced ride should play into the breezier forecast at the start as we head up toward Oustic and down through Everton before returning to Arkell once the winds have died a little?? We’re also a month past the longest day of the summer, so it’s getting harder to push the distances and still make it home post-ride before it starts getting darker, so keeping this one on the shorter side tonight. R1; 2 & 3 will follow the same route to start, and then R1 will have a little extra around the Eden Mills area at the tail end of the ride.
Don’t forget lights especially for the end.
Load the route on your bike computer if you have one, here’s how.
