Ten Stockport Community Cycling Club cyclists met at Torkington Park for this cycle ride out to Bollington. Neil was leading this second group. Neither Neil, today’s ride leader, or I had managed to recce this route, but we were confident of navigating our way round! Meanwhile, Sarah was resting in preparation for the Stockport 10 running event tomorrow. We are moving into winter, so even though it was relatively mild at the start, we were all ready for the rain…
