See [url= http://www.singletrackworld.com/forum/topic/stw-southern-shandy-drinkers-purbeck-ride-april-24th ]here[/url] for more info!

To echo Rusty Trowel - it's still sunny, the ground is still hard, the cider is still cold, and the guides are rearing to go-go!

All welcome!

Hi DrP Do you know how much the car park at the end of Sandbanks is ?? The big one by the roundabout about 1 mile before the ferry. From memory it was about £6 -£8 when we used to spend most of the day windsurfing there in the summer
I hope the weather is as nice as it is today. Its glorious, finished my chores, and about to head out on the bike, but am having to help Dez out with booking hire cars / ferries

It's cheaper in the 'off season', but not sure how much cheaper. Most other car-parks in the region are £2 all day, but will need to find out the sand banks one...

It was £2 all day last weekend, but i don't know when it changes to summer rates. Alu Chine was £1 an hour yesterday. Free on street parking on the peninsula if it's too dear.

5 of us got out today, it was fantastic. the parking round the peninsular was full by 9,30 so you have very slim chances of getting one after that time.

Its going to be a great ride come rain or shine.

but everyone knows cider tastes better in the sunshine.
