Purbecks recce/picnic ride. Sandbanks ferry. About 10-12 miles

Details

Meet at the Sandbanks Ferry ticket office in time to catch the 1100hrs ferry.
Parking near the ferry is expensive, so you may prefer to park in residential streets about a mile away towards Poole and cycle up. If any of you prefer to meet on the Studland side instead (free parking at the roadside), please leave a comment to let me know.
Bring your own picnic, as the ride will last into the afternoon.
I anticipate we'll catch the ferry back about 1600hrs.

This will be recce for a shortish, about 10-12 mile, ride in the Purbecks avoiding the really big hills. Hopefully this will allow enough time for a visit to Knoll Beach after lunch before heading back to the ferry.
There will be a picnic lunch stop en route. MTB strongly recommended.

Because of the picnic and the beach stop, this ride is very weather dependent. In the event of a much better weather forecast for Sunday 29th than Saturday 28th, I'm likely to reschedule to Sunday.

Please have your phone with you, and the leader's number stored in it.
Please also bring a spare inner tube, tyre levers and pump.
In the event of last minute problems on the day, please text me on 07922 168992 as this is the most reliable way of contacting me after I've set off from home.

Please ensure that you follow the club rule, all riders must wear a cycle helmet at all times, if you fail to have a cycle helmet then you will be asked to leave the meetup, this is for your own safety.
