The planned ride this Wednesday for the grades 3 and 4 is advertised as being a mainly off road ride down the Downs Link to Shoreham. This was suggested by a club member as providing some further variation in our programme, and with the weather set fair and looking as though it will remain hot, the section along the old railway line will no doubt provide some welcome shade. However, I recognise that such a ride will not appeal to all, and therefore Peter Hackman has kindly arranged an alternative on road ride for the grade 4’s with coffee at Stansted House (PO9 6DX) , and thereafter via the Itchenor Ferry to Dell Quay; should be glorious but take sun screen. Please see his e-mail for further details, or contact me direct.
It may be that no-one will favour the Downs Link ride, so if you plan to attend that one, please e-mail me (johnmatsouthview@btinternet.com) to let me know; if I get just one positive response then I will be there.

Hi All,
The scheduled ride for Wednesday 20th July is offroad along the Downslink. As an alternative for those Group 4s who would prefer an on road ride I will be leading a ride to Elsted House Garden Centre (coffee) followed by a ferry trip to Itchenor (tide permitting) and thence to Dell Quay for lunch. Afterwards I intend to follow the old railway track out of Chichester (Centurian Way) and thence to Midhurst for tea.
