Three routes to choose from this Sunday. The forecast at the time of writing is for a dry sunny start to the morning, with showers arriving late morning and a breeze from the south.

At 9am we head South first to complete the Pednor Loop before heading back for a trip up to Wingrave it’s a 44 mile route designed to arrive back at Ivinghoe Velos HQ soon after midday. At 10am it’s a 35 mile round route to Winslow, back via Swanbourne. At 10.30am riders will do a 21 mile route to Berkhamsted and back via Ashridge. Thanks to Richard F for providing the 35 and 21 mile routes.

The Ivinghoe Velos is 15 years old. The first ever ride was planned at the Rose & Crown back in July 2010 and the first actual route published was on 1st August 2010, there were two route options- a medium (14 miles) and a long (21 miles) Riders were invited to dust off their choppers and remember to pack a puncture repair kit as well as a drink in the ruck sack.

Always a group of friends, never a club, we have been on many adventures over the years, cycling has enriched all our lives and riding with others has added to the fun, so if you can join one of our group rides you will be continuing the traditions. The motto is no one gets left behind which requires riders to moderate the pace to accommodate all riders in the group as well as riders being realistic about the ride they join. We welcome new riders who are keen to try riding on the roads in a group, if you can maintain 15mph on your own you should be fine to ride in our longer group rides….. If you can maintain 17mph on your own we are probably a bit slow for you! The group will only continue with your participation, so if you want a group to ride with in the future, come out when you can!

Roll on Sunday.
