AUTUMN 2012
The Magazine of CTC Wessex Cycling The thing about editing this Newsletter is that its a breeze if the contributions flood in, but it can be a real chore otherwise. I shocked the recent committee meeting when we got to my item on the agenda. Margaret was just about to repeat the regular phrase in the minutes “Keith needs more contributions” when she was stopped in her tracks when Keith said “I think I have plenty for this issue.” Do not however be complacent; if you’ve done a little tour this summer or enjoyed yourself on the bike somehow then write it up and tell us. It really doesn’t need to be more than a paragraph. Someone who has done something this summer and enjoyed himself on the bike is my old clubmate (and 300,000 mile club member) Ray Haswell pictured here enjoying a cake that he was presented with in late August at the Drovers Inn, Gussage all Saints at the conclusion of his “Round the Coast of Britain” ride that has occupied him since May. Well done Ray, and keep up the fundraising for those Gorillas!

Normandy Raid Plus +
By Shawn Shaw
We took the Fast Cat from Poole to Cherbourg and returned via Ouistreham to Portsmouth. Conveniently the D63 points one in the direction of Quineville the town at the northern edge of Utah beach. Much up - much rolling - much down and we had crossed the headland with the wind gentle from behind and the sun fierce from above. We picked up a sandwich in Quineville and once stowed in the saddlebag we retired to the shop next door for pastry and coffee. Utah beach is the first and the group photo was taken at the Memorial halfway along. Turning towards Carentan from La Madeleine the headwind grabbed us by the wheelies and called for - nay demanded effort. Huge effort. Both wind and sun worked tirelessly to ensure this was no ‘walk in the Parc’ Naturel des Marais (an area of marshes where several rivers meet the sea with few crossing places). We recovered with our sandwich in Carentan sat on conveniently placed park benches - for the use of - overlooking a water feature which looked over a lock which proved to be a yacht park. This feature has the Route Nationale crossing via a tunnel further out towards the coast deflecting much of the traffic congestion one would expect from the position of Carentan on the map. We spent a while gnawing our sandwich and contemplating the erratic nature of the water feature before retiring to a bar on the way out of town. The wind was back to attacking from the side as it had along Utah but once we were on the D514 things changed. The sun remained fierce but now being wind assisted it was a very short hop to our next scheduled break at Port en Bessin. As we turned onto the quayside there was a queue backed up at a shop front. Glace was the sign above. It would have been rude to ignore the invitation and we sat in the sunshine cornets in hand studying the art of stretching out the length of time one can take delight of the simple things of life like crushed strawberries in ice cream. In 30 degrees of wall to wall sunshine it is not really long enough; enjoyment was quite thorough though. With Madam having filled our bidons we set about finding the wind to finish the ride. Up the hill from town and there it was. Just where we had left it and just as keen to see us easily into Ouistreham. Our bike computers had the average speed for the day shading 15mph. Graham was beside himself; worried that he would not be up to it at the outset he could not believe what he was seeing. [So very pleasing for the leader when that happens.]

We dined at great length and with leisure at a restaurant fronting the canal before boarding for a night’s light sleep on the Mont St Michel. Full English breakfast sans tomate and then we landed and headed for the ferry to Ryde (OAP discount obtained). The rain showers and the wind strove to dampen the spirits but we were able to miss the first big downpour by sheltering in a pub. The sign outside said “open from 9 for breakfast” and even though it was 10 mins after we had to ‘knock them up’. £1.40 for coffee and shelter; bargain! The Yarmouth ferry seems so much slower now than the old ones were but we had lunch in The Buttery. Macaroni cheese is not a favourite with me but this was very pleasant with salad and baguette (demi). It was shortly after Lymington that Graham had the deflature d’jour; he did not find it to his liking but mastered the task manfully. On across the New Forest passing Sway to Rest and be Thankful at Burley Street, then Tea and a generous slice of Victoria Sponge in the tea room at Crow Farm Shop. Here we said farewell to Dave as he lives down along the Avon . The next leg was to be along the Castleman Corkscrew from Ringwood to Poole . That section of woods, ferny downs and moors completed and the buttocks suitably tenderized the four of us sat (gingerly) in a pub on the quay at Poole for a de-brief over a last meal together before dividing up to wend our weary ways to the loving bosom of our family homesteads, or as one insisted, Mission Control. The beaches of course; Utah where the beach, once won, leaves the conqueror facing a mile of lowland from the dyke to the foothills; the others all differing in their nature and the challenge set to the invading forces. The wildlife; coypu, butterflies and heron and orchids in profusion. The classical Norman architectural style of churches, rebuilt from the destruction, and Chateaux reduced to manageable farmsteads but with perimeter walls fit for a prison yard. The Isle of Wight where the scenery and ambiance are so akin to the cretaceous crinkles of Dorset’s Purbeck and further west. The New Forest mix of wood and moor and disturbing another Green Woodpecker, worth the trip just for that. Not a bad couple of days all in all and as is usually the case, bad patches and dodgy weather kept us from going madly at the ‘tour’ (second day 11.6 mph avg). Happy days indeed.

Right to Ride Report
Paul M. Turner
August 2012 Active Travel – In Bournemouth there are a lot of cycle contra flow schemes including Privet and Green Road, plans for Roumelia Lane, Fishermans Walk, Ashley Close with dropped kerbs, a footbridge on St Clements Road. Christchurch Road – Sheepwash and St Swithuns Road have Toucan crossings. Bournemouth Station has upgraded the pelican crossings. Please note the Promenade has restricted hours in July & August but the rest of year cycling is permitted from Hengistbury to Sandbanks. There is Area Cycle Map 2012/13 available from Tourist Offices, libraries etc.
In Poole a Review of the Twin Sails Bridge and the Old Poole Lifting Bridge has been ordered. As part of this, the Review will specifically consider the layouts ease of use and impact on cyclists and pedestrians. There is a problem at the old bridge for cyclists from

Blandford Road across the Poole Bridge and turning right to the Quay. It is highly dangerous and there is no refuge for cyclists! Anyone who wishes to have their say considered as part of the review can contact the committee by writing to Bridget West, Select Committee c/o Civic Centre, Poole BH15 2RU or via email at select.committee@poole.gov.uk. I will make my views known! An additional event is being planned for 7 September at the Poole Civic Centre, where people can have their say in person.

We have received the following regarding the progress of the Maiden Newton to Bridport Trailway which both CTC Wessex and CTC West Dorset provided financial support . . . Mike Walsh Dear Trailway Supporter, Just a quick update on progress with the Maiden Newton to Bridport Trailway. Things have been a bit quiet recently, but work has been going on behind the scenes - a planning application has been put in for the Bridport-Bradpole section, and we are looking at options for extending the path to Loders, and for Maiden Newton-Toller Porcorum. Cafe 64 in Maiden Newton has raised another ÂŁ500 from the Trailway project from secondhand book sales! Thanks for your hard work, and to everyone who bought or donated books. A working party is planned for the existing Maiden Newton section of path, cutting back vegetation - this will probably take place in mid-September, and as soon as I have a date I'll pass it on. In the meantime, the West Dorset, Weymouth and Portland Draft Local Plan is out for consultation, and there is still time to make comments. The Trailway project does get a mention, but it's fairly non-committal, and it would strengthen our case with all the local authorities if the plan made clear that the District Council supports the project, which it does. That's all for now, as soon as we have news on the planning application, the working party or indeed anything else, I will be in touch. Best Regards Peter Henshaw

The Beat Goes On
By Big Bob
I’ve discovered something amazing, someone actually reads “wot I rites”! So much so that a local mature gentleman cyclist really had a question with reference a to point made in our last chat. I hesitate to hammer this particular subject during this short series of articles for our elite C.T.C. Wessex Newsletter but I feel we all know each other well enough now to up the cadence and go for the profounder landscape of our cycling lifestyle raised by this gentleman. Now I appreciate there are many who are quite happy to saunter the peripheries of pedaling pleasure, and a social chat and a burst up the road are all they require from their activity and so back to Sunday lunch, which is fair enough, but what a waste when there is so much more. To all those in love with the whole exasperating game, cycling is not a tack-on to life but is life itself. It is the sensory organ through which all experience flows and in its rhythms and cadence a dawning enlightenment about what is really important about the world begins to appear. There is now in this age a surfeit of digital do-da information, knowledge and communication which drowns the unwary in a sea of anxiety producing mush. An over intellectualising approach which discusses and shreds adinfinitum producing anxieties about the future and regrets for the past. But the simple bikie has the glorious wonder of the present to play in, he is truly heir to the old mystic conundrum “The Eternal Now.” His pleasures are literally in front of him (no pun intended) and there is no time or wish to dwell on the past or future. He can use the system to organize and build his own world view which as a life model works so well. He does not, nor would wish to, escape dangers and conflicts when they occur in his world but when they are past they are gone and forgotten while literally travelling further down the road. When young, I grew up like a lot of my post war generation heavily influenced by the “Beat Movement” spearheaded by Jack Kerouac and his strange stream of consciousness work “On The Road”. He came along with compatriot poet William Burroughs and even Ginsberg producing an alternative thought process which refused to accept the grey rigidity of that time. Alas now all dead, but a few years ago I sat in
Cycle Ink #166

a quiet room above a bookshop in San Francisco where they used to meet and remembered them as the prototype bikies they were. But enough of this. I hope this is sufficient information for my enquiring cycling gentleman, previously mentioned, although I am afraid I can do little to assist him with the other difficulty he raised of a personal nature regarding his relationship with his lady partner, apart from suggesting she stop sitting on the bike immediately. Now on to the news concerning our Le Hotel du Velo Sportif cycling retirement complex. I am bubbling with suppressed excitement and had no intention of revealing this news until further down the line as things are at a delicate stage. As tasked by our house committee, Mike W. and Ralph H. have left no stone unturned in their relentless search for funding to assist in the continuation of our cyclists country retirement Manor. So all true lovers of the bike who wish, can carry on living the cycling life they love in later years in the friendly company of kindred souls. I am thrilled to say that due to their untiring hard work a dialogue has been opened with “Sky Broadcasting� who seem keen to be associated with a rapidly growing mature end of the population still pursuing a sporting activity. Our heartfelt thanks and support go with them in their delicate negotiations Should they be successful Derek P. has magnanimously offered to take Victoria Pendleton of the Sky Track Team on an extended tour of our grounds and complex and even at his own expense treat her at our local village chippie., thus showing the profound effect the news has had on him. Entering into the spirit Ann D. Wendy H. Anne M. Jeanette K. Joan C. and even our House Medical Officer Jo G, all forward ladies, have volunteered to personally cater and convey morning tea should ace team sprinter Chris Hoy stay for the weekend although the further offer of laundry and other unspecified services could be construed as a little excessive I would have thought. So, a growing sense of optimism permeates our happy establishment. Shawn S. actually smiled at me and Alan D oiled my chain . . . strange things are afoot! Ride Joyously.

An Australian on the South Coast
By Mike Walsh
In Canada in 2006 I rode with an Australian who this year decided to ride up the length of Italy including the Alps and Dolomites. Upon completion he flew to England and took a train to Scotland to ride the Jogle (John O’Groats to Lands End). These rides were all organised rides but he then rode along the South Coast and I rode down to meet him in Shaldon. We then rode back together. In the adjacent picture you can see my style of training. A train journey along the coast from Teignmouth to Starcross where we caught the ferry to Exmouth. That part of the trip was easy but the remainder of the day took its toll. Although we used the Sustrans route 2 some of which was along an old railway line you can see here, the terrain did change. The constant very steep hills and finally the hill out of Sidmouth got the better of me. I had to walk a lot of this. It was such an effort that I had to abort the target for the day and seek an alternative stopover with my brother-in-law. Oh how lucky to have a relative in Uplyme! The adjacent picture shows Alan cycling along the promenade at Seaton where I had eventually decided enough was enough and phoned my brother-in-law. After a very welcome and needed restorative evening and night I started the next day feeling much better. I did stock up with many sweet treats to keep me going through the day. We continued along the Sustrans route 2 to Dorchester. We passed Uploders the original overnight stop and discovered later that the arrangements for an evening meal would not have been met so I was very pleased that we had made other arrangements. This was the first trip that I had used my Garmin Edge 705 to guide me

along the route I had selected. I found it very good and will use it again for new routes but as always I will still have a map with the route highlighted. Over kill maybe but I am getting older. I used Bike Hike to plan the route going down to Shaldon and Bike Route Toaster for the return. Both utilities worked well and I doubt that I will be able to decide which one to use in the future. We stopped for a late lunch at the Top O’ Town as always a very welcome stop. My Australian friend had roast beef and Yorkshire pudding and bearing in mind the portion sizes in the Top O’ Town he was due to go down hill a lot faster although still not as fast as me. From Dorchester we followed the route of the Coast to Wareham at a grand pace. I had been thinking that we might have to resort to take a train from Dorchester or Wareham but I was able to keep going and decided to ride all the way home. The last hills from Corfe Castle to Shellbay were not as bad as yesterday, not as steep and nowhere near as long. We caught the ferry into Sandbanks and as it was nearly 6 p.m. we decided to ride along the promenade. We had a photograph opportunity here on the promenade as we entered Bournemouth. A couple of more miles and home. Shower, change and out down to the pub but unfortunately they were in the middle of a pub quiz so again on the second day we aborted our original evening plan. I introduced Alan to the Thursday Rouleurs and even I rode to coffee with them. Alan continued on all day but I went home. He also joined us on the Terry’s Burley ride.

Glastonbury 2012
By Shawn Shaw
A few words (of encouragement) DA has similar stories and not far away in a land that time forgot the role of Pilgrim was continuing. Intermittent in the true tradition but regular to an extent of three times in four years –the kind of traditionally annual one can believe in. For the third time in four years the road to Dorchester was taken to join with fellow pilgrims for a tea in the Top O’ Town car park. The hour for departure arrived but the leader hadn’t. We did not have to wait too long for generations and so it is with cyclists. I’d Sharon and we were then soon underway. known aging Bournemouth two wheelers Ancient earthworks and Roman viaduct recall with misty eyes and slack jawed behind us we followed the lane over Wren’s wonderment the hallowed days of yore when Bridge and on into Maiden Newton.

The mutual feeling of satisfaction of the joint venture too was tangible as we set off through Somerset . The names were not so mediaeval church as we had enjoyed in Dorset and appeared to lack much variation as we went through Butleigh and then Butleigh Wooton for our photo-shoot. The Tor was becoming a focal point on the horizon as Sharon , leader, bravely battled strong winds that had now sprung up. In Glastonbury we parked up in the Parish church of St John and sat to picnic in the church porch. Other Pilgrims passed back and forth in various states of intensity; some on a religious path; others on the pagan way; sightseers in abundance; residents intent on daily living. Glastonbury draws everybody and our one thunderstorm of the day. Which was over very quickly and we were sat in the porch, in the dry. Once the rain had stopped we set out for The Rifleman and it was now that a great discovery was made. If you park your bike at a church do not park under gargoyle spout; the clue is in the intended use of said object. Enough said. We got our drinks and sat on the veranda with sweeping vistas of the levels beyond; less sweeping now that the trees are getting bigger but impressive none the less. “I remember you!” said the Landlady. Thinks: Do I need to apologise? “Where from?”. “Mere, The Angel Corner Tearooms and The Old Ship Inn.” It is 10 years since I stopped at the Ship so I certainly left an impression. It was memorable for me too as it was the night of a great storm with flooding and horizontal rain; I was so cold and so so wet; the Ship was my haven. They served wonderful cream teas on Sunday afternoons too. After drinks we sought out Cinnamon Lane and Kennard Moor Drove to dribble our way across Levels backwaters heading across country aiming for afternoon tea at Milborne Port. Passing through more cream stone
villages where thatch and stone fringed the mullioned features, we noted a Water Mill with the race in full gush and became aware of Galhampton (seems they have a music festival there, too) as we passed the Manor House sitting four square at the junction of Hearn Lane and Long Street. Shortly after this the single lane becomes single track and steeply, scarily (grasping of brakes and gritting of teeth scary that is) plummets through nettles and other less menacing verbiage zigging and zagging into a farm and on to roll through sheep stocked meadows before climbing to go under the A303 (weird). At the junction it warns of Land Slips. We pass between high walls of rock in a cutting of ancient pack pony usage but nothing slips. Soon we are enjoying a pot of tea for four in The Queen’s Head in Milborne Port (and a biscuit). The pilgrimage is nearly over as we are now facing the familiar roads of Dorset through Goathill and Haydon, Allweston and Folke before legging it down the A352 into Dorchester and the return to Poole . It has lived up to the memories and the billing given by the rheumy eyed. The old country sport of hunting Fox/Badger/Deer with four legged mammals has given way to a not so sporting increase in mowing them down with automobiles. Yet a green and pleasant land it still is, if a little bloodier on the roads. Blot On The Landscape award 2012 (and for many years hence forward probably) goes to the spot near Nether Compton. The view ahead and to the right is lovely; there is much to be said in praise such well cared for and nurtured loveliness and many have been able to do it justice. The view to the left, however, is reminiscent of the faecal deposit of a giant Lego-dog. Sadly there was no giant Legodog-owner with a pooper scooper nor anyone to tell them not to . . .

Poole Quay Cycle Event
By Mike Walsh
After the success of the inaugural Poole Quay Cycle Event in 2011 Poole Borough Council have decided to make it an annual event. In May I was invited to have a stand again. Terry and I had a cup of tea and agreed we would take part. In June, whilst having another cup of tea, we decided what form the stand would take. I arranged to borrow my son’s surf wagon for the days adjacent to the event. I also contacted Dave to collect a good number of his style of leaflet. On the weeks running up to the event Terry resurrected a frame he built that would house a board upon which we could attach various photographs and leaflets. I was asked by Poole Council to confirm that we would be attending and how much space we would require. After another cup of tea we decided on the size of our plot, what a guess! I drove to Hook to pick up the surf wagon on the Monday for the Thursday event. Terry repainted the frame and made sure it still worked. He also reviewed the rollers and clock again to check it was in working order as I did with the turbo trainer I was to bring along. I trolled through many photographs of various levels styles and groups and selected a number which could be displayed. On the day before the event I emptied my second floor flat of the bike, turbo, trestle table and all of the bits and pieces needed for the night, (many trips up and down). Again after a few cups of tea around at Terry’s we pinned the photographs to the board together with the leaflets. The frame was dismantled and packed together with the rollers, clock, bikes and all of Terry’s bits and pieces. Following a late request from Poole I sought and borrowed a further turbo from Jacquie which Clive checked out before collection. Poole used this to power their smoothie maker. Kevin and Phil from Bournemouth Jubilee said they would come along and hand out leaflets. On the day I was unsure if they had any Jubilee leaflets so I called on Peter to collect sufficient for the evening. On the night Terry, Agnes and I arrived at the wrong entrance and asked which company or organisation we were with. We try and represent all cycling in the area and therefore do not badge ourselves with any particular group. After a call we were allowed through and set up our stand pictured above. I am biased but I believe that we did attract attention and handed out a good number of leaflets. Paul, John and Rosie joined Kevin and Phil, all in kit, to answer questions and hand out leaflets. Dave came along and provided some Dorset Cyclist Network

leaflets. A small number tried the rollers, and I managed to entice some kids to try the turbo. There was a prize for the fastest boy and the fastest girls. Olivia managed 22.5 miles an hour and Ben 28. At the end I gave away old cycle magazines. Amazingly nobody wanted them until one person took one then everyone wanted one. Just before the fireworks Terry and I packed it all away and drove home. We packed the surf wagon the following day but for both Terry and I some of the equipment has still not been put away. I returned the van to my son the following Monday.
