Tim H’s 100 mile ride will take place on Sunday 3rd
August 2014. Leading up to the event will be a series of reliability rides to
be held on the first Sunday of each month, starting on Sunday 2nd
February 2014. The rides will increase in distance and difficulty beginning
with one over a 34 mile route. These
will take place in addition to the usual Saturday club rides.
The key features of a reliability ride are
fitness, self-reliance and navigational skills. They are a personal challenge
and not a race. Anyone falling behind shouldn’t expect others to support
them. As a small incentive the rider who
completes the most miles during the series will be awarded free membership for
the following year.
There are no fixed dates yet, but to add a little variety to
our cycling, some car-assisted rides are under consideration where we drive with our
bikes to a particular location and cycle from there. Some ideas to think about
are a possible trip to South Wales to ride with Max Girdler and maybe a joint
ride with another Clarion branch such as Gosport, Hampshire.
