Personal Invitation from Brian
'I would like to invite cyclists who may not feel up to the long ride to join me for a social ride after the main event has left.
This will be ideal for novices , or like me, those who have left their hard riding days behind and now look forward to a pleasant ride in good company.
I look forward to seeing you on the day
