This weekend (19th Feb) sees our 2nd Saturday morning group bike rides which we will hopefully continue on through the Summer. This ride is open to any athelite club members but our aim initially is to get those of you out who have been holding back so far for whatever reason, be it the weather, the distance, confidence etc.
Remember - This is not a coached session but a mixed ability group ride, though there will be experienced riders around to help out where needed, especially on these initial sessions.
The ride will be more of an orientation session and we will head to the quiet country roads. Everyone will stick together for the main session but if you want to do a bit more feel free to ride down to the meeting point or add on at the end.
A few points to note;
1. You can come along on any type of bike but please make sure it is roadworthy & the gears & brakes work. We will check your steeds before we head out but that doesn't mean you get a free service!
2. No helmet - no ride. No arguments.
3. We DEPART the shop on Hamilton Cadzow Street at 9.00 am. If you are anything like me it will take you a while to get ready for a winter ride so get there early, wrap up warm & be ready to ride at 9.00. There is a car park behind the shop.
4. Allow time after the ride to consume tea & biscuits in the shop, nothing worse than rushing a hobnob.
Hopefully see you on Saturday!
