Swinley Enduro is rapidly approaching, so we’re going to do a full on training event.
We will follow last years course fully, stopping to have a look at some of the trickier bits along the way. Although this year’s course is secret and will have an additional stage, we’re pretty sure some of last year’s stages will be included again.
Meet outside the Swinley Bike Hub at 10am (so we can bug Tristan and try and get him to spill more of this year’s course details!)

This is steady XC ride taking in some of the cracking scenery on the Ridgeway.
Starting at the 3 Trees cafe, we will head along the Ridgeway, up the side of Barbury Castle (the gentlest side!), continuing along the Ridgeway past Hackpen Hill, before the descent across Rockley Downs to Ogbourne St Andrew.
From there we will take the old Railway line back to the 3 Trees cafe.
So uphill first (gets most of it out the way!), a nice down and steady return for coffee and cake.
This will be 24km in length and 275m of climbing – rather like the short route Tuesday night rides, but at the weekend.
We will be taking it at a relaxed pace, so this is suitable for those looking for a starter ride on the Ridgeway.
You must wear a helmet and a suitable coat is advised (showers are currently forecast).
Meet in the 3 Trees car park for a 10.30am set off.
We will also be stopping briefly at 11am to observe 2 minutes silence for Remembrance Sunday.
