1. Regular Saturday morning gentle rides – 10-15 miles, 10:00 start, all year round
These are the main feature of the Group’s rides: social rides of about 10-15 miles, maximising use of cycle paths and traffic-free routes, with, of course, the requisite coffee break at half-way. Meet at Rowheath Pavilion from 9:50 for a 10:00 start, getting back for about 12:30.
Depending on the numbers turning up on any Saturday, ride leaders may split the group, with the two groups going to the same destination – or possibly to different destinations – depending on the numbers and interest on the day.
2. Wednesday rides
For people who can come out during the week, there are also rides on Wednesdays, which are mid-week versions of the regular Saturday rides - similar pace and distance. Meet at Rowheath for a 10.00 departure.
Until 2020, we offered a programme of monthly longer Saturday rides during the summer, in addition to the regular shorter rides. If further longer Saturday rides are arranged for summer 2024, details will appear here and will be circulated to the Google group.
