Social gravel ride out to Nottingham City Golf Club, Bulwell, for an Al fresco lunch stop. Good paced group of 8…nice to see Kris P out, along with new rider James McN. Perfect conditions, av. 23degC in a gentle breeze WSW 9-14kph. 😁

Back on the local loop!

13 riders out in 2 groups on a lovely summers evening with added cool rain at the end. Chairman had to abort at Shottle Gate on the way out due to a crank issue so I’m not sure what else happened. A quick change of bike and I rejoined the group at the top of Cumberhills. Then back to the Holly Bush.

Great 3 up road ride to Ticknall today. Good deed for the day done by rescuing 2 shrews from the gutter on Wood Lane Horsley. Excellent breakfast cobs (recommended) at Ticknall Village Cafe which has now re opened. 2 nd cafe stop in Little Eaton to ensure fluids were well topped up. This ride was organised on the club's WhatsApp group. #belperbc

14 of us out tonight in 2 groups on the rather lumpy Carsington loop. The fast group had some navigational difficulties and the sun seemed to come out just as we were climbing the longest hill of the night making a sticky night hot and sticky. Peter lost a bottle on a descent attempting to recreate the bouncing bomb and apparently Nicks new shorts don’t have enough padding… Then 13 of us back to The Grapes for carbs and beer. Join us next week for more adventures like these.

4 members of Belper BC took part in this year's ARDROCK MTB festival enduro in North Yorkshire. Ready for next year??? #belperbc #ardrock #mtb
