This is ride is open to all members of the Wirral Cycling Group, but is also suitable for people who have not previously ridden with a cycling group.  If you would like to join us on a ride, then book onto this ride using the form below, but please telephone or email the ride leader when you receive the booking confirmation to let them know about your experience and capabilities.  
Before the ride, check out the page on our website about taking part in one of our rides "Taking Part", and read the Advice from Cycling UK on riding in a group.  If you are new to riding with a group, please arrive 15 minutes before the advertised start time, so that the ride leader can brief you on how to ride safely with a group of other riders.

(D)Bh'd Park to Thurstaston via P.Sunlight

Current Participants: 0 space(s) available

    This is a grade D ride led by Jill McNamee and starting at the visitors centre in Birkenhead Park. It’s the ride planned for 21st  Jan which was cancelled. From Birkenhead Park visitors centre to lunch is just under 20 miles [maybe 23 if we are making good time.] Mostly on quiet roads and cycle paths the route follows the Wirral Circular trail to Port Sunlight where we can pick up other riders approximately 45/50 mins after our start time [10.30]

    Flissy’s cafe is fairly slick and I will book a table nearer the time. If you wish to bring your own lunch there is outdoor seating by the visitors centre.

    After lunch I will be going North on the Wirral Way to West Kirby station, or may cycle back to New Brighton if the wind is favourable. If anyone needs to return to Birkenhead Park then the train from W.Kirby will take them to Birkenhead Park Station or I can advise on other routes back.
