Although this is a 100 mile ride, the pace will be reasonably easy, and within the capability of anyone who has previously completed 75-85 mile club rides.
The route to Salisbury is fairly flat, the return route is more undulating.
Ride preparation:
Joy & Phil will be leading the Ride, but there are some things you will need to do in preparation and on the day.
- Ensure your bike is in good repair, and bring spare inner tubes.
- It will still be cool when we set out, so dress accordingly and bring clothing appropriate to the forecast.
- Make sure you have plenty of fluids & saddle bag rations with you.
- Download and familiarise yourself with the route, you may want to pack a map in your saddlebag.

Ride leader notes
I enjoy rides of all distances, but my preference is longer distance and Audax rides. I also enjoy occasional touring & cycle camping.
For general riding and Club rides my usual bike is a Genesis Single Speed - enjoyable riding, not as hard as people think, and easy maintenance.
I tend to Lead longer and more demanding rides. These rides will be more suited to experienced riders who can keep a consistent pace and are okay with hills. If you've not ridden with me before I may want to check your ability before adding you to a ride.
Occasionally I will lead shorter & moderate pace rides - in which case this will be clearly shown in the ride description.
About Pop-up rides
We have certain days when we try to organise regular rides. However, individual ride leaders can create pop-up rides for any day and time.
The small size of some pop-up rides means we might be unable to split a ride if you get into difficulties. We will do all we can to escort you back to the start point, but please be prepared to navigate yourself home or to call for support from a partner, relative or friend.
