Calendar

This Thursday’s Ladies Leisure Ride will actually be on roads, but will definitely be a leisure, rather than roadie, ride.

Starting at the Wanborough Village Hall (where you can park) we will head out to Nightingale Woods and home via a coffee stop.

Route will be about 10 miles, although options to go further if everyone feels like it.

Back to Nightingale Woods for this Ladies Leisure Ride, this time via the tracks and bridleways.

Starting at the New Calley Arms on Ham Road, we will head out to Nightingale Woods and home via a coffee stop.

Route will be about 10 miles, although options to go further if everyone feels like it.

After a summer break, Ladies Leisure Rides Returns!

Meeting just outside Waitrose , Witchelstowe at 10.30am, we will take a leisurely ride along the Old Railway cycle path along the bottom of Old Town . There is an option of a short 3 1/2 mile loop or a longer 7 mile loop with a lap of Croft , depending on what everyone would like to do. I’m happy to tailor the ride to suit you ladies!
This is entirely ladies only (excuse my hubby photo-bombing in the pic above , he won’t be making an appearance!) and perfect for beginners.

Really excited to welcome new ladies to my leisure rides , so what’s stopping you !! Come and enjoy a ride with cake and coffee afterwards, along with a good old girlie natter!!

See you there ladies – oh and don’t forget your MyWaitrose card for free coffee!

This will be an uplift day and starts at 9.30am, so be there early to get prepped, sign in etc

This is about 1 hour 30 min car drive (from swindon), so if you’re lift sharing allow time for pick ups.

Uplift ticket price is £36, but you can a pedal up ticket for £6.

You will need a helmet – they are compulsory at Bike Park Wales, and  if you are fancying the rocky reds or black runs, a full face helmet is advisable.

Tickets sell out months in advance and you will need to book your own, so get in quick on the link below.

Tidworth had to rearrange their opening weekend, so we’ve done the same with our first club trip there.
A bunch of us have enter the excellent Root1 Round 1 race, which uses Sicknote as the course, so we will definitely be practicing that, along with 99 Beeches – a new trail that will be used for Round 2.
And we’ll also be trying the other excellent trails there of course.

Don’t forget, entry to Tidworth cost £7 for the day and you will need to sign up for a B1ke (free) membership in advance.
Meet in the car park/finish area at 10am

A fairly long Tuesday nighter at 37 km with the customery 500m climb. Weather looks fine so if we get way smarty we should still be back in time for a pint. There are some short cuts should time be against us. Route is Hodson, Aerial mast climb, Rickety Bridge down. Shooting club (not Gypsy lane Climb) Ladder and home. Jacket, helmet and lights a must.

The usual Tuesday night ride onto the Ridgeway. The weather forecast looks wet and windy yet again, so we will be riding harder pack trails and a bit of urban – all subject to change according what weather actually transpires.

You must wear a helmet, bring lights (strong enough for the dark of the Ridgeway) and appropriate clothing (warm waterproofs at the moment).

If you have not been on a club ride before and are not a club member, you are welcome to join us to see what it is like before joining. Details on the benefits of membership and how to join can be found by clicking here.

As the last ladies day at BPW was cancelled due to snow , we are heading back to the lovely Welsh hills for a mixture of push ups for training, pay as you go uplifts and what ever trails we fancy !!! Starting with blue and some reds, with the option for those that are completely mad (Claire!!) to try a black !!!

If anyone can offer to share lifts, then let me know and we can arrange to share the toll costs as well.

We might have a photographer travelling we us too, to take some action shots !!!
