South Bucks Midweek Cycling Newsletter - December 2024
Winter is officially here! One of the few highlights is our Christmas Lunch next week at Chartridge Park Golf Club. I hope the weather is better than last year with some finding icy roads and even an overturned vehicle blocking a lane! We have 44 booked, so I look forward to seeing many of you there.
If this doesn't appear correctly, you can view it on our page of the Cycling UK website.
Feel free to share pictures of your exploits on our Facebook page or send them to me for possible publication.
Thinking of joining a ride for the first time? We have a helpful page on our website which should answer most of your questions, but if you want advice please get in contact.
If you spot any interesting articles, pub or cafe changes, or want to contribute your observations, please let me know.
Safe cycling,

Salisbury Cycling holiday 2025
We have paid the deposit to book a total of 36 rooms for Monday 21st to Friday 25th April 2025 at Sarum College, Salisbury.
There will be led rides on Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday to suit E and M group riders, so volunteers to plan and lead rides would be welcome.
In March 2025, I will send out a form requesting payment and there may be an opportunity for one or two more people to join then, if rooms become available.
It will be exciting to explore a new area from Winchester in the east to Shaftsbury in the west and including the New Forest. I am looking forward to it already!

I will be giving a talk on this subject at the Chiltern Hills Clubroom at Little Kingshill Baptist Church Hall on Thursday January 16th at 8.00 pm. I am an experienced user rather than a complete expert and I haven't decided on the content yet, so if you have any questions or suggestions, please contact me.
