Sunday Casual meets at 9.30 am outside The Stag in Wellesbourne.This ride is open to all club members, or any new riders who want to try club cycling as a guest.
Distance is typically 25 to 30 miles at an average speed of 11-14 mph which for most people is a very relaxed…...you might even say even a Casual pace !
Our objective is to provide an enjoyable ride to meet the needs of as many of those riding. So speeds will be faster or slower, This is mainly determined by who is riding that particular day eg current club members or new guest riders
If necessary we will regroup if a gap opens up eg at the top of a hill. We have never left any rider behind as it the responsibility of the Ride Leader is to ensure everyone returns home safely.
Ride leader today is Alison Speechley and route is
Out of Wellesbourne to Walton & Pilerton Priors onto Honnington and crossing the A3400 to Todenham and then across the Fosse to Paxford and Ebrington. Café stop is about 21 miles into our ride
After our stop we’ll head home via Coleman’s Hill (down it with care due to the junction at the bottom) Admington, Wimstone and then up the hill at Alderminster and home via Loxley.
It is 36 miles with about 1400 feet of climbing so the upper end of distance for the Casual group. However we won’t leave anyone behind and will regroup at the top of the inclines if required.
