June 2012 Rides
Hi all.
This coming Sunday will be the 3rd one of the month and is therefore scheduled to be the long club ride. This month I shall be leading the ride.
Meeting point: The Village Hotel
Departure time: 8.30am
The route I have this month is based on another CRC route. As previously this is a new route for Coventry Triathletes and it should be remembered that the route is thus largely untested!
Due to the lack of club ride leader availability and previous poor turnout, there will again only be one longer, faster route this month. If people would like the shorter route reinstating then please let me know and we will look into the feasibility of reinstating it in future months if there is a clear demand (note this is only for the long ride on the 3rd Sunday of a month and does not affect the organisation of the club social ride on the 1st Sunday of a month).
The route will be about 66 miles with a cafe stop at the National Herb Centre in Banbury. Average speed will be around 16 (maybe 17!)mph.
The route can be found here: http://bikeroutetoaster.com/Course.aspx?course=412303. If you have a cycle computer/watch with navigation facilities, you are encouraged to have a copy of the route.
As usual the code of conduct for club rides can be found in the gallery. It provides some useful information on group riding and I urge everyone (novices and experienced cyclists alike) to have a look:

Please feel free to contact me if you have any queries or concerns about this ride.
Kind regards,
Matt
