ACC Routes Saturday 18th February 2017
Meet 9 am Ashbourne Leisure Centre. Please ensure to check out the routes beforehand. As ever ‘elf and safety’ is paramount! – so if you’ve got lights please use them, if you’ve got hi viz bright clothing please wear it, (club kit is lovely and bright:) ) and if you haven’t got either of these then please do consider getting some.
Weather forecast at the moment looking dry, cold with sunny intervals – those hills will warm you all up 🙂
However if it does change then please use your own judgement with regard to changing/shortening the routes. (Probably best to still keep those mudguards on the bikes as well – just in case 🙂 )
Many thanks folks for the 3 route suggestions – i’ve just tweaked the B route a bit – enjoy!
