Wednesday 8^th June

Evening Cycle Ride

Doug

Meet at the Viper, Mill Green at 7.30p.m. for an easy ride along lanes, byways and woodland trails. Parts of our route will be off-road, but flat and undemanding, ideal for novices, and manageable even without a mountain-bike.

The pub is delightfully situated in the middle of an oak wood, an ideal location for post-ride refreshment

(CM4 0PT for sat-navs, grid ref TL640019, see map).

Wednesday 15^th June

Committee Meeting

Sunday 19^th June

Mersea Island Walk

John

Join John for a circumnavigation of Mersea Island. Once the home to one of the richest villa estates in Roman Britain, the island is steeped in history and has witnessed Roman merchantmen, Celtic saints, Viking longboats, Stuart earthworks, smugglers, Victorian novelists and 1940s invasion defences. The walk offers commanding views of the Blackwater, St. Peter's Headland, wildfowl in the Pyefleet Channel, and the oldest continuously-used causeway in Britain. The walk is about twelve miles. Meet at 10.30 am in the car park in West Mersea High Street (behind the library, grid ref TM009126, see map). Bring sandwiches for lunch. (Note, due to tides, egress from the island may be difficult before 1715)
