Leisurely Ride: Cycling 2006 In association with Sustrans. Meet at 1pm at Reality Checkpoint (centre of Parker’s Piece). A countryside ride, at a gentle pace. Please bring lights. We shall tour the changes that have happened to cycling in Cambridge during 2006. These include the good (Addenbrooke’s to Shelford), the bad (Arbury Park) and the ugly (Gonville Place / Gresham Road / Parker’s Piece crossing) though each can nominate their own. We’ll return to a member’s house in Romsey Town for home made mince pies and mulled wine. You can view the route we are taking. |
