SAINTS FOUNDATION BIG BIKE CHALLENGE TRAINING RIDE

his ride is for all those thinking about, or already signed up to the Saints Foundation Bike Bike Challenge 2019, or those who are just looking for a longer ride with like-minded cyclists.

This ride is lead by British Cycling trained ride leaders, the route is 80 miles leaving Saints Stadium at 9am. This ride is perfect building block for those doing one of the options available for the challenge ride, for example those doing the multiple cycling days, to the one day option.

We'll stop for refreshments during the ride.

On the day if we can we will be splitting everyone into steadier/ faster groups to make sure everyone gets round comfortably i.e. faster riders don’t think they’ll freeze and beginners do not feel intimidated – please feel free to contact me via the message facility.

You may want to wear suitable clothing and a helmet is optional. A light, waterproof jacket is almost essential for the British climate. Otherwise just bring something to eat, drinks, spare inner tubes, tyre levers and pump.
