The proposed dates for the reliability rides are:-
RR1 Sunday 11th February
RR2 Sunday 18th February
RR3 Sunday 4th March
RR2 & 3 are on 'rest days' of the Six Nations, RR1 is the day after the England game, if Wales win, no excuses about your hangover. RR1 is too important!
For those new to Reliability rides there is plenty of info, including maps at the 'On Your Bike' tab on front page of website. The idea is to ride on feel, no computers or watches, to a pace of your choosing, either in a group or if you prefer solo.
If you want any more information speak to me or any of committee at club night.
Next club night is this Friday 12th January.

Astute date selection Andy, we've got no excuses not to attend!
-
Away for RR1 but will do the remaining

Links to courses for reliability rides:-
RR1 https://www.strava.com/segments/14027409
RR2 https://www.strava.com/routes/11657510
RR3 https://www.strava.com/routes/11657610
Apologies for different formats and hope the links work OK
One note regarding RR1. The course as it is on the link is 80km and that doesn't include going to the second roundabout at Llantwit.
i.e. course is B4265 Wick Rd then at roundabout at Llantwit turn left on B4270 Llantwit Major Rd to Cowbridge

Thanks Andy, RR 1 is ok but the other two won’t play.
-
Think you need to be logged into Garmin account to access, so I’ll try and find the strava versions and put them up.
-
Sorry don’t have strava versions of RR2&3 so will have to’create’ them.
I’ll put the links up in the week.
-
Link to RR2 now changed to a strava route!
-
Link to RR3 now changed to a strava format.
Note that in the first few kms after going along Church Acre towards Coity, you turn at the second roundabout!!
-
Thanks Andy, all. working know, yesterday’s practise went well.
-
Excellent, I think RR2 is a tough one for newer riders, especially if the weather’s not good
-
Norman/Andy - happy to take on the timing for next Sun (RR2) as I won't be riding this year
-
RR2.
Thanks Steve for offering to run the RR2 event. It will help me a lot. Cheers, Norman.

With the current weather situation (currently you about 1ft of snow in Llantwit) is this going to be a good idea this weekend?
-
No! ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;
Suggest postponing until post-Mallorca!
-
Or just do the following Sunday 8) ?
-
Aren't the bulk of club members in Mallorca for the following 2 Sundays?
-
RR3 Zwift version? 10 X flat loops?
-
OK - so does the 'suggest we pospone' mean that it is postponed ?
I probaby don't get a vote .... but I'm in favour of postponing ...or the 10 x flat route suggestion from Chris 😎
-
What are the roads like out that way?
It's a nightmare around Penarth, Barry, Rhoose etc only the main roads are passable.
-
Postpone!
-
Postpone please. 25 March?
-
Sunday 11th + 2 laps seafront to make up the 50.
-
Any objections to postponing the RR3 until Sunday 25th March?
-
None from me! ;)
-
None from me...it's not worth it in this weather and road conditions...
Still on Majorca 8)

RR3 postponed until Sunday 25th March
