The Traditional “Clubrun”, the idea of this ride is to get like minded cyclist’s out enjoying our local countryside. Open to all riders of the club whether they are complete novices wishing to learn new skills or those more experienced members wishing to pass on their skills to the new members of the Group (It can also be used as a “recovery” ride). The natural progression from the improvers rides.
