I am sorry to report I was not going to be available for the ride this September - the first one I have missed since August 2008 (I think it was).
I believe that 10 ladies headed out to Hawarden Farm shop, and had a lovely time!.
I asked Welna, Moira and Jo-Anne to lead the ride in my absence - and I know Welna has written a little something on her blog!
Not sure how far they all went, I will try to find out more and post some pics here too!
On her blog, Welna mentions recent foraging with the abundance of berries this September. I was enjoying a warm sunny ride home from work today, when I was also distracted by the sight of blackberries dangling at head height. So out came the buttie box, and it was half filled with blackberries by the time I got home! My husband informs me that they go well with elderberries in wine making; so that is the plan!
Home of the Chester Fabulous Ladies cycling club. Meet one Saturday morning a month for easy cycle ride. We will always wait for riders, and may have a few different levels of ride available. Photos and opinions are usually my own, but photos taken by others are sometimes shared with their permission.

September berries
I have lived in Chester all my life, and cycled here for over 25 years. It goes someway to explaining how I know my way locally without referring to a map all the time, a fact which amazes my ladies. There is a wealth of accessible lanes, tracks and routes within 10 miles of Chester, easily reached in a mornings ride. Not to mention more cafe's than you can shake a bicycle pump at! That is what the fabulous ladies is all about!
Oh, and cake!
