At the end of September we started a group especially for young riders, both boys and girls, mostly aged 8-14. We meet on Eccup Moor Road at the back of the dogs home 9:15 for a 9:30 depart. On 11th October we had 7 young riders and 4 adults. We require a mum or dad to accompany their children please. We use quite lanes as well as bridal paths in the Harewood Estate. On the lanes there can be some cars and this is why we require mum or dad to ride with their young ones. This week we had great fun, got a bit muddy, had great weather and saw a stag! Mountain bikes recommended.
Saturdays, joint club run Bolton Abbey cafe stop, meet 9:35am Lawnswood. Good level of fitness required.
Saturdays - Road training, John Smeaton High School, 1:45pm
Sundays - Meet 09:30 Lawnswood for approx 3 hour group ride. Good level of fitness and stamina required. This is a joint clubs ride with plenty of Mercury CC riders. For slightly younger riders there is a cafe stop part way round, for keen adults the ride can be non stop. Route and cafe stop varies from week to week. Younger riders need a good level of fitness and stamina too. If you're not sure which group to join, we recommend Saturdays first.
