This was our first Mums Club cycle ride, aimed at Mums left home alone while their children are away at school and are interested in getting back on their bikes. Unfortunately, the weather was rather windy and wet at times so there wasn't a huge turnout for this particular ride...just Lynn and myself.
We met in the car park of Chichester Sainsburys and I showed Lynn the cycle routes into Chichester, avoiding the busy roads - we cycled behind Homebase, through the housing estate and along the Roman Walls coming out next to WSCC - all along cycle routes. From here we made our way to the Centurion Way and cycled the length of this route and ended up in West Dean garden centre for tea and a slice of cake.
Going home we cycled the quiet back lanes of West Dean and cut along the bridleway towards Lavant and then cycled along Fordwater Lane coming out near the University.
We reach the car park at about 12.30pm.
The distance was approx 20 miles. It was good to see Lynn again and hope to see more ladies on our next Mums ride on Wed, Nov 9.
