Gone Gravelling is back

Date: Saturday 29th October
πŸ“ Location: @thebridgespub
⏰ Meet time: 11.45am
⏰ Start time: 12.15pm
πŸ“ Distance: 26km
πŸ†™ Ascent: 594m

The pub have been kind enough to let us use their car park so we are hoping you'll join us for a drink after the ride even if it's a lemonade πŸ‹

More about the ride...
We’re teaming up with the National Trusts Stepping Stones Project and @trashfreetrails to bring you a route with a difference.

The Stepping Stones project is a landscape-scale nature conservation project helping create and restore wildlife habitat in the Shropshire hills. This route was designed in partnership with Trash Free Trails to connect some of the key sites where important work is being done to help nature, and to promote Purposeful Adventure.

During the ride we’ll stop at several Stepping Stones Project locations where a National Trust officer will give a short talk on why this site is included in the project and why it’s locally important that it’s protected - don't worry these stops will be very brief!
