The July ride was led by Steve Clarke with Barry Kimble herding the stragglers as our Tail End Charlie. The route is entitled 'Symonds Yat rock/Forest of Dean' and is available to view and or download from the 'Route Library' page of our website - www.saparweb.com. ... See MoreSee Less
Great ride, thanks Steve for organising and leading it.
Our SAPAR July social ride will take us down the A49 to Leominster where we will continue on the A49 to Dinham and the Queenswood country park and arboretum HR6 0PY cafe for a comfort/coffee stop. We will then continue along the A49 through Hereford, to the A4137 heading to old forge and the B4234 to Symonds yat rocks parking area GL16 7NZ, and a quant log cabin cafe and viewpoints overlooking symonds yat and the river Wye. This seems rather a short way from our last comfort stop but after riding through Hereford i felt we would need another break, and the beauty of this forest stop was too good to miss. ( besides i dont know of any other good cafes further along our forest of dean route) Treat this as our lunch stop, bring your own or order from the cafe. Our route will then continue to our fuel stop ESSO, Lower lane Coleford GL16 8QQ and on towards Parkend past the lovely Cannop ponds, through forests towards Lydney where we will head up the A48 along the beautiful Severn estuary and the B4215 towards Newent and Ledbury where we will take the B4214 to Bromyard and our final comfort/coffee stop at Doms bike stop HR6 0NA. hopefully fully refreshed we will continue back up the A49 to Dobbies garden centre Ride end, and Home.
Thank you Barry and Anne for the enjoyable June's Rideout yesterday. 15 riders left Montford Bridge. We lost some along the way and 9 ended the ride at Oswestry. ... See MoreSee Less
A brilliant route on a lovely sunny day, the coffee and free cake at the Oakley arms was very welcome. The day was'nt even spoiled by the impatient muppetry of riders not in our group taking risks to overtake to Lynclys crossroads where we caught them up.
Thank you Barry and Anne for a most enjoyable day.
I second everyone's comments. A great day with good company. Some welcome new faces and catching up with others too. A good example of SaPAR's social side while underpinning Advanced riding skills. Looking forward to July's rideout. 👍
Was a fab ride out. Perfect weather plus the roads weren't too busy...thanks to Barry and Anne for organising and leading 😊
One of our fantastic members, Steve Clarke, has negotiated members of Shropshire & Powys Advanced Riders a 10% discount for the cafe at Halls in Battlefield, near Shrewsbury. Identify yourself as a member when you order to receive your discount. Thank you again Steve. ... See MoreSee Less
I conduct bloodbike rider assessments, and use this cafe as the end point of the assessment and debrief. We often meet friends for lunch here, and the 10% discount soon adds up. Great quality home cooked food and drinks. Families, and Bikers are welcome, especialy advanced rider/ bloodbike groups, indoor and outdoor seating, plenty of free parking.
With this month drawing to a close the first Sunday of June draws closer. Yay. Barry and Anne are ride leader and tail end Charlie and have planned an excellent ride. We will be leaving Montford Bridge picnic area at 9:30am. If you want breakfast before that make sure you arrive in plenty of time. Full route details are on our website. ... See MoreSee Less
