Breeze Basingstoke Do The Rapha 100

Breeze Basingstoke Do The Rapha 100 This is Basingstoke's version of the Rapha Women's 100k! (But we have a stop-at-50k option too!!) http://www.rapha.cc/womens100 On Sunday 17th July 2016 join thousands of women around the world to ride 100km. The aim is to create a global event, with thousands of women taking to the road to complete a 100km journey. The Rapha Women’s 100 is not a competition to see who is the fastest, it is about gathering a global community of women around the world to take part in this shared adventure. Interested? We hope this will appeal to those looking for a new challenge, or for stronger riders who just will enjoy a social female only ride! Not sure you can make 100k? We have planned a figure of 8 route so that you will be back at the start point (Eastrop Park) after having completed 50k,(there will be a ride leader change over). At this point YOU can decide if you and/or bike are fit and/or have the desire to continue! We are looking to try for about 12mph/ 19km/h. We had said between 5-6 hours depending on the group. You will find this a lot more difficult on a mountain bike. Please check your bike is road worthy before you leave home: pump up your tyres (it makes for a more comfortable ride and prevents punctures), bring a spare inner tube: wear clothing appropriate for weather conditions and ensure you have at least one water bottle, snacks and coins for ice cream, coffee/cake.
