South Manchester Wednesday Riders meet at the Konak Cafe, 8 Grove Street, Wilmslow, Wednesday mornings between 9.30 and 9.45. We usually depart between 10.00 and 10.15 and ride from 40 to 65 miles, depending on the weather, time of year, and published lunchtime meeting place. We often ride as two or three groups to provide flexibility, with a registered ride leader for each group.

But on the fourth Wednesday of the month (starting in August), we are trialling a new start point, at Walkers' Retreat, 6a Mill Lane, Hazel Grove.  The ride will be a lot hillier, but a bit slower, and will allow us to explore East Cheshire and Derbyshire.
