This Saturday as it is the first of the month will see us run a green ride for those riders who are new to group riding. Unfortunately, as the Autumn is now arriving this will be the last Green ride until April next year when the weather hopefully turns warm and dry again.
Saturday 24th is our Club Hill Climb and Half Wheel Competition!
This years events will be held at Watsons Hill and Semer Hill in Semer.
The Saturday club ride will be heading there from Northgate at 9am and then looping back to the Cult Cafe for refreshments and cake.
With the Sudbury Open Hill climb just a few weeks later its a good chance to see where your legs are at and of course be in with a chance to be crowned our club champions.
Due to low ticket sales with a week to go, the committee has sadly decided to cancel this year’s event.
Matt will be in touch directly with those that paid to get their refunds.
Our final Coached Road training is Saturday 9th July.
Arrive 9.40am, sessions run 10am-12noon.
RAF Woodbridge is a very exciting venue and the site has been used previously for Road Circuit Racing by local cycle clubs.
This site offers an excellent traffic free environment opportunity for some great training to help improve fitness, bike handling or race preparation. Sessions are aimed at 7yrs + with Adults encouraged.
Back for a third year in the safe hands of Matt Kerr the annual Ipswich to Norwich ride will take place on Friday 17th June, departing from Northgate Sports Centre at 9am.
All details of route, speed and restaurant stop can be found on the Facebook event site here
