Club Runs / RR 1 John Edwards Memorial ride Sun March 2nd
« on: February 25, 2025, 08:37:56 AM »
Sunday March 2nd will be the first of the club's Reliability rides.
Here is the route:- https://www.strava.com/segments/14027409
The idea is you ride at your own pace and choose a time you think you can ride the distance in. If you are not sure about the route or your pace then team up with other riders of similar ability. This is really important and makes for a more enjoyable ride.
For RR1 there are 2 options:-
50 miles in 3 hours = 16 mph ave speed
50 miles in 2.5 hours = 20 mph ave speed
Start times are 9:00 for 3 hours and 9:30 for the 2.5-hour option.
Please sign on at least 15 minutes before your intending start time. i.e 8:45am for the 9:00am start.
No computers, watches or GPS devices are allowed,
so if you feel the need to record your ride then tape over or cover up screens. Tape will be provided at the start!
To be 'reliable' or 'qualify' in RR1 you have to finish + or - 10 minutes of your intended time.
The finish is at the Stalling Down next to the Mughal Emperor.
The cafe has closed down, so riders will have to get drop back down into Cowbridge for coffee!
I'll be doing the timing, please be prompt in signing on and remember to let me or other riders know if you don't intend to complete the ride.
please post your intended start times and which ride you're going for, so others can join you.
See you at Brackla for 9:00am start
