See full schedule below. |
Standard ride
An inclusive and social ride catered for all abilities, often splitting into two groups depending on group size and pace of riders. Distance: 45 to 55 miles (70-90km) Pace: 15-17mph (24-27kph) Vibe: chatty, non-drop, no one left behind Hills: optional hill efforts, regrouping at the top Ride leader: Dave Wilbor |
Alternate ride
Gravel or road depending on conditions. Longer and faster. Distance: anything from 40 to 100+ miles (65-160+km) Pace: 17-20mph on tarmac (27-32kph) Vibe: faster and can get a little competitive Expectations: be sure to have the route downloaded, these rides are more self-sufficient Ride leader: Dominic Maxwell |
Members also organise or take part in a number of additional social, training rides and races throughout the week. Keep an eye on WhatsApp if you'd like to get involved.
