C Club Rides

Meet at Thornes Park Car Park, Denby Dale Road.

Rides begin at 8:30am in summer and 9:00am in winter (usually ties in with BST).

What to expect

These rides are not suitable to those new to cycling or occasional leisure cyclists. No one will get abandoned but riders can get dropped particularly on mixed terrain. If this happens the group will wait and regroup.

Speed

Average speed is 13 to 15 mph (21 to 24 kmph) depending on the terrain.

Distance

Rides typically cover 30 to 75 miles (50 to 120 km)

If you find the pace too high please SPEAK UP so the speed can be adjusted or the route altered to get you home safely.

Important!

Please do not underestimate the fitness required to ride in a a group at 13 to 15 mph (21 to 24 kmph).

We do ask all those planning to participate in any of the rides to read the group riding technique page.
