Below is some information from Lancaster's Cycle Demonstration Town initiative. Anyone interested in setting up similar rides around the area? A brisk 20 miles on Saturday mornings.
"Free on Saturday mornings during the winter?
Then come along to the Twenty Club rides on Saturdays at 10am (Millennium Bridge).
Twenty Club rides will return to Thursdays (6pm) in the Spring.

For more info visit www.celebratingcycling.org/twenty"
