Ride leader notes

I have ridden and led rides (and the occasional tour) with this club since the early 1980s and enjoyed many years of long distance cycle camping, touring both in UK and abroad, and longer faster day rides.
Time has modified both my abilities and aspirations so that I no longer engage in the camping aspect but will still do multi day events and overnights, but in more luxury.
I have partially culled my bike collection retaining my recumbent trike (electrified), Raleigh tourer, carbon racer, full suss mountain bike and now my "go to" electric gravel bike and a folder (for away days) for those times when assistance on the hills is helpful.
I prefer relaxed riding in country lanes but am not intimidated by busier roads. I will sometimes add a little bit of off road mixed in. Distance of up to 40 or 50 miles.
I get bored with the same old routes so will seek new ones when possible.

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.
