Some organisers make special arrangements to make runs suitable for cyclemotors and similarly slow-moving machines. These runs are marked with a green logo. A ride doesn't have to be especially short or hill-free to qualify. Arrangements to prevent cyclemotorists being left behind on their own and getting to the lunch stop half an hour behind all the mopeds are what is needed.
If you'd like an event listed here, please contact us.

‘a fine afternoon in spring will tempt me to find out excatly what there is to see at “Offley Holes,” ... the ford at Waterend (one of the prettiest sights for miles), and the mill at Lemsford — another beautiful picture.
‘The fact that that mill was the original of “An Old Mill by the Stream, Nellie Dean” was not marked on the Ordance Survey map, but I found it out...
‘Even the names of the places draw me to them. Barley Beans; Diamond End; Whiteway Bottom; Normansland, St. Ippolitts; Slaughter Wood—and behind ever one is a story.’

stands to the various smaller pitches of general members.

route is the same as last year with the lunch stop at Claydon
