The Group Leaders will identify themselves prior to the ride and then go through some basic safety tips and group riding etiquette before we set off so that everyone stays safe and knows exactly what happens on the ride. 

PLEASE MAKE SURE YOU LOOK AT THE ROUTE PRIOR TO WEDNESDAYS RIDE.

Weather is forecast to be dry and 13 degrees with 10 mph south westerly winds with 22mph gusts.

We will split into STEADY, CHALLENGE and RACE PACE at defined and agreed points along the route.

Steady is steady and usually sit between 14 – 16 mph average.
Challenge should push your ability and sits about 16-18mph average.
Race Pace is faster and is around 20mph+.

Please pick your group carefully and remember that steady is the only group that holds back and does not drop anyone. 

**Please remember tubes, pump, levers, multitool and also please ensure your bike is in good working order, oiled, lubed, maintained **

We look forward to having a good turn out on Wednesday.
