I’ve deployed various strategies over the years, to make the most of Slow Food Cycle Sunday. Early starts, leisurely starts. Slow pace, led by a 5 year old, turning around almost before I’d begun. High speed blast up the Meadows pulling a napping baby in a trailer, hoping to reach the end and then meander back. Solo rides. Squad rides. They’ve all been equally rewarding.
Regardless, half the fun is in poring over the newly released vendor map and planning out your must-visits and discovering whose hosting what, and what fantastic new offerings have sprung up while you haven’t been looking.


The Pemberton Lion’s Club host a Pancake Breakfast at the Pemberton Meadows Fields from 8:30am – 10:30am. Pancakes, sausages and coffee are on the menu and it’s all available by donation.
