Event description


On Sunday 19th April we'll be leaving the Green Welly Café at the High Street, Ditchling, East Sussex, BN6 8SY at 10.45 am. Coffee drinkers please note: arrive earlier to have a coffee and a chat before leaving!

We're riding to Fairwarp in the Ashdown Forest for lunch at the Foresters Arms pub or a picnic on the village green opposite the pub where there are picnic tables for anyone who prefers to bring their own lunch.
