Hi all,
There were about 50 cyclists on today's Boxing Day ride in Newcastle. We left from Broadmeadow Racecourse at around 7:00am, and headed up to Raymond Terrace, then out through farmlands, to Maitland, then back to Hexham and then to Newcastle.
All up around 110kms, at a fairly steady pace.
If anyone's visiting Newcastle, or interested in a similar ride, there will be one on New Year's Day. All are welcome - bring spare tubes, a couple of bidons, some food. There's usually a couple of comfort stops along the way.
Just turn up at around 6:45am, and either wait on one of the corners, or cycle clockwise until you see the large group travelling in the opposite direction.
Happy New Year!
