This year Richmond Cycling Club are holding their Sportives on Saturday, 24 May. As in previous years there are three distances on offer – 115 miles, 85 miles and 60 miles. The course for the long route has been tweaked to include all three ascents which will feature in stage 1 of this year’s Tour de France.
Several club members have already signed up. If you’re interested then click here for further information.
Hi wheelers. Well the light nights are here! We were going to see if we could get an extension for a couple of weeks down the track on Monday nights as it has proved so popular. But I haven’t heard anything back. So I’m going to revert to plan A and start this Tuesday with the mixed ability social/training nights. Meet at Ayton tourist info car park 6pm for 6.10 set off. For those who didn’t do it last year we pick small local loops so we can regroup at the end to ride back. So it fits in with all abilities and training needs (plus the social bit!) bring flashing lights the first few weeks as it will be getting dark when we head back in. If I hear any news about Prissick Mondays I will let you all know. See you all there. Dave k
