9:30am start, 34 miles mixing road and off-road
9:30am start, 28 miles mixing road and off-road
The routes are together for the first 11 miles so that people can see how they feel and either go the long or not-so-long route.

Velos rides for Sunday 6th January 2019
Happy New Year ! Our rides this week are structured to see if we can get a sizeable group starting together again, so the 9am ride is a loop to arrive back to join the 10am ride.
9am start, loop back to the pub
As usual, please bring a copy of your chosen route with you. We will organise ourselves into groups who want to go at a similar pace. When in a group, please keep an eye out for the rider behind you – if they start to struggle to keep up, give a shout to the rider at the front to ease up a little so that they can get back on.
We always welcome new routes so if you have one, please do share it with us, either on the Velos Rear Hub Facebook group, or via our website.
