Club Reliability Ride - Sunday 26th February
Submitted by David Dyer on 5 February 2017 - 8:04pm
On Sunday 26th February we will stage our annual Club Reliability Ride leaving Bird Hills Golf Club at 8:45am.
Reliability Rides are simple early season training events that have been run by cycling clubs many years before Sportives and Audaxes. We revived ours in 2010 to give everyone, whether they usually do one of our regular Sunday morning rides or not, a chance to get together for an early season ride along a known route over 50 miles/80km of a flattish course south of the A4. It will be a good opportunity for the two Sunday groups to meet up (if only at the start and finish!) and gives anyone who wants to try and ride with a faster group an opportunity to do so with the comfort of knowing if they drop behind, there will be slower riders following. In previous years we have usually had 3 or 4 groups covering the route at various speeds.
The route will be similar to previous years and I have sent out an email to all members with a map and gpx files. In the mean time, get in touch if you have any queries.
