Club Rides
Our club rides take place throughout the week, starting from the Sherston Village Hall car park.
​
Saturdays
The club run starts at 8:15am and is around 80km (50 miles).
We ride in ability groups, at a speed everyone can manage. Our quicker group normally averages 16-18mph (25-30km/h), but we always adjust speed for the conditions and to make sure everyone can finish.
The ride normally ends at one of the cafés in the village.
​​
Sundays
​
Our café ride is at 9am on a 50-70km (30-40 miles) route to one of the many fantastic cafés in the area. It's ridden at an easy pace and is a great opportunity to socialise.
​
There is a ride at 1pm aimed at rider development: it's about 50km (30 miles), ridden at an easy to moderate speed aiming to help riders make the step up to the Saturday club run. It's also a nice way to have a spin around the lovely Cotswolds countryside!
​
On alternate Sundays we run a development ride of up to 20 miles with a café stop. This ride is at a very easy pace so that beginners, juniors and developing riders can easily take part to build fitness and confidence on the bike - or it's a great way to unwind after a big ride on Saturday!
