Map
The aim of this ride is to help familiarise riders with the the CCP Memorial Coastal Jaunt Audax route and introduce you to the joy of Audax rides.
The ride will start from the Spring in Havant but you can join us at the Community Centre in Denmead (around 7 Miles) where we'll stop for a break. Please bring your own refreshments.
From there we'll follow the whole of the coastal Jaunt route (35.5 miles) back to Denmead, stopping for lunch at Titchfield Haven (15 miles from Denmead) or wherever the group agrees.. Once there you can return to Havant with me or you can make your way home.
Further refreshments as we wish on the day.
The pace will be relaxed and slower than my usual rides. Stops as requested by the group.

Ride leader notes
As I am still recovering from my accident early September 2025, I am going much slower with shorter rides. I am riding a recumbent to reduce the risk of falling. Text below is out of date.
On club rides I ride a road bike and prefer to lead all day rides. I aim for 55 - 60 miles in the winter and 65 - 75 miles in the summer (although there are exceptions). One of my bikes is an e-bike which i use on faster rides, so I can keep the pace up. My preferred speed is 12 - 13mph depending on amount of climbing. I record my speed on a Hammerhead Karoo bike computer and the speeds I give reflect what i have recorded over the past few months.
I 'm not keen on urban riding and prefer the countryside of the Downs to the north, west and east of us. Although I'm not a particularly good climber I don't shy away from hills as i think flat rides can be less interesting.
I sometimes lead morning only rides on a Friday for all-comers. On these rides I arrange groups to suit the pace of all riders.
I generally start my rides at the Spring Centre in Havant but will pick up on the route on request. I finish my rides here too although you are welcome to leave the ride elsewhere e.g.nearer to your home.
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.
