Our Coffee Ride is a good place to start if you are new to cycling in a group, re-building fitness or returning from a break.
This ride is the gateway to our three-tier calendared road rides or something members looking for a continued connection, can enjoy on its own.
Paced at around 11-14 mph for 35 miles with a coffee stop halfway round, this ride maintains the pace of the slowest rider and allows plenty of opportunity for shelter or re-grouping.
Occurring every other Saturday, the ride departs the Mulberry Tree in Stockton Heath at 08:30.
Riders joining this event should have a road or road paced gravel/commuter bike, be able to ride at the indicated pace and be familiar with basic road riding skills.
Riders should carry a puncture repair kit or spare tubes and have good lights where appropriate.
All riders must wear a helmet.
If you have any questions then please don't hesitate to ask via our Contact Us form with more details available in our Club Guidelines documents.
