This is a change to the ride as advertised in the October newsletter. In place of the Barnet Parks ride, we will head into Hertfordshire and take in a visit to the Shenley Apple Day. A great chance to try and buy an amazing array of locally grown apples. All set in the Shenley Park Walled Garden. On site café is also open for refreshments.

Meet: 10.30am outside Waitrose, The Spires, Barnet – by the bandstand (NO Tally Ho pick up).
Ride Leader: Talia Ross

 [NB – We hope to run the Barnet Parks ride at a later date.]
