We had a huge turnout for the Boxhill ride - nearly 40 cyclists, including Mums & Dads. Weather was excellent. We all met at the Ryka's Cafe at the bottom of Boxhill, dodging the stream of large Harley Davidsons, Triumphs and other assorted motorbikes which were going in and out of the car park.
We set off in various groups - some at quite a fast pace and some at a more leisurely pace. Some even had time to admire the stunning views from the top! Once we reached the top we rode past Headley cricket ground (this was all part of the 2012 Olympic road race route) before heading down the fast descent of Juniper Hill and back around to the start. Several riders decided to stretch their legs a bit more and did another lap! Well done to all the riders and a big thanks to the Mums and Dads who helped and kept an eye on the proceedings. We hope to run another Boxhill Ride in October. In the meantime, for the more experienced/faster riders only (with road bikes) there will be a KJCC ride to Leith Hill on Sunday July 20th - 10am start from Ryka's - about 20+ miles (quite tough!). More details soon....
