30th Sutton Mayor launches annual Cloverleaf Rides Tuesday 23 May
Sutton's new Lady Mayoress met Shirley and Colin Quemby (top photo) and cyclists in Trinity Square to launch the 30th annual Cloverleaf rides at 7 pm last Tuesday. She stopped and chatted with us all for a while. It was a lovely warm and sunny evening - perfect cycling weather - and ten of us met to enjoy a couple of leisure rides around Sutton.
Five circular routes are provided; after brief discussion it was agreed to head for the Park Farm area, lead by Sue. The roads were generally quiet by this time of the evening and the ride was most enjoyable. After a sociable break back at the square, most set off for another ride, this time to Rose Hill and back, aiming to return by 9 pm.
The Cloverleaf Rides kick off a summer of evening leisure rides which take place from 7-9 pm on various evenings and from various meeting places around the borough. Further details from this website https://www.cyclism.org.uk/
I would just like to add thanks to our excellent Dr Bike, Jim, (far right in the final photo, above) who gave my bike a thorough and expert check. He advised me that I needed a new front wheel and brakes and adjusted several bolts and screws on the pannier rack, which no longer rattles and rolls... I cycled home very carefully afterwards, have had the suggested work carried out, and look forward to a much safer and quieter ride this Saturday !
