Ride 26: The Autumn Equinox Ride

In total, 14 participants enjoyed another evening of lovely weather for a great September ride. This was the last ride of the year in full daylight, so we used some of the off-road sections that will be impractical until next spring. Friends, old and new, chatted and enjoyed an eclectic, cycling themed playlist, with most continuing over a drink at a the Northern Monkey Brewery afterwards.

The route.

We did a variant of this route. Accurate one to follow when I have time.
