Newcomers ride Saturday 17th. June
« on: June 14, 2017, 07:21:13 AM »
Newcomer to cycling or just getting back into it after a layoff?
Not sure if you have the speed or fitness for our Sunday club runs?
This is a session aimed at you!
Come along for an easy paced ride as well as coaching on group riding. Build your fitness with the aim of joining our mid-week and regular Sunday rides.

All new riders welcome, men, ladies and juniors (14-17) (Parental consent required or accompanied by a parent)

The first ride will start from Physique gym, Brackla CF31 2LL at 1:00pm Saturday 20th May
Cycle down to Bridgend Industrial estate for a short coacing session on group riding and to assess ability. Followed by a ride of around 90 minutes.

I intend running these session once a month over the summer with the aim of encouraging new riders to join the club and our club runs.
You do not need to be a club member to come on these runs. (applies to 3 rides for insurance purposes)
For further information contact Andy Harries
acharries@aol.com  txt 07504436270

Please bring your bike in good working order and whilst I am happy to help change a puncture you will need to bring your own inner tubes or means to repair a puncture.
Helmets are compulsory as there is a coaching component that requires it.

Three new faces joined Nigel and myself for a quick coaching session on group riding followed by a 30 Km loop around Treoes, Llangan, Pencoed and Heol Y Cyw common.

Ben, Alex and Sam (junior rider, fresh from GCSE exams), enjoyed our taster session.  We took it at a steady pace and enjoyed the sunshine. Hope to see Ben and Alex out on club rides soon and hope Sam will join our next outing once he's finished exams and built his fitness up.

Thanks to Nigel for coming along and helping out.
