These rides are held every Saturday throughout the year and the event and route details will be published in the club events calendar. The routes are all on road and use country lanes where possible. The recommendation is to use a road bike for these routes. Please arrive 15 minutes before the start time so that riders can be organised into the groups.

There will always be a regular ride, but for those riders wanting a shorter and less hilly route, every alternate week an 'Inters' ride will be available, stopping at the same cafe half way round. 

Each ride will organise themselves into 3 different ability groups depending on the number of riders attending. The following are examples of the speeds each group will maintain on the flat section of the road:

• Group 1 - 18mph+

• Group 2 - 16-18mph

• Group 3 - 14-16mph

The more experienced members of each group will ensure the group stays together and  that all riders wait at the top of hills for others to catch-up and have a short rest.

NOTE FOR NEW RIDERS

We will make every effort to make you feel welcome but if you are unsure of your ability/speed or are new to cycling, please consider joining us on our Sunday Social Ride first.
