Sunday Winter Training Ride kicks off

Sunday saw the first Winter Training Ride of the autumn.

The weather was much better than the previous week and 13 member in total turned up for the ride. As usual the ride was mostly flat route of 90km aiming for a 30km/h average which we achieved though it certainly felt tougher on the way back from Great Budworth as the fatigue started to build. The 'hit out' up the Wizard certainly blew out the cobwebs and made sure everyone was ready for their lunch.

Only observation from this week was the dilemma of maintaining a good pace but getting everyone round, so that's the aim in future weeks, even if it means a few shoves from the stronger riders to keep everyone on the wheel.

Same again next week, 9.15am, 3 hours from the Town Hall with Monica in charge and a different route planned so look out for that route during the week. Monica will also attempt to set up a WhatsApp group for the ride so the ride leader can share their live location in case anyone is running late or loses the group. As well as for some trash talking during the week.
