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/womens100On Sunday 23rd July 2017 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. 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 13.5mph We had said between 5-6 hours depending on the group.
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
Happy cycling
