Castle Cyclists: July 2017

We like riding bikes!

We are a diverse group of people living in the Bishops Castle area with one thing in common - we like riding bikes! We organise rides for riders of all abilities, and we are affiliated to Cycling UK for the protection of all.

Rides are on the first Wednesday of the month. Rides are normally "meet at destination" rides, enabling riders of all abilities to meet at a place and time to socialise together.

In addition, an informal "further, faster" group meets each Wednesday at the Six Bells Pub. You should use the link below to contact us if you think you might want to join this ride for the first time, so that we can let you know if it's going to be right for you.

JD's cafe in Knighton

By Paul Rogers

A bit of a surprise this one, with holiday time now in full swing, I didn't expect to find many out. Just John, Huw and me at the Bells for the 9.45am departure, with a brisk 30 miles to Knighton, taking in one of my favourite roads through Chapel Lawn and the Redlake valley. How wrong I was, with 8 others from the Castle Cyclists joining us at this cracking little cafe. After an hour of the usual banter, we headed off in very different directions and another successful "meet at the cafe" ride.

That's it for now with school holidays nearly upon us, so any suggestions for rides from September onwards would be good.
