Peloton on the Prom, Worthing
This year sees the return of the Street Velodrome to Worthing -https://www.facebook.com/worthingvelodrome/?fref=ts - and just like last year, you can arrive in style by joining the Peloton on the Prom!
There is already a planned bike ride on Saturday the 2nd -https://www.facebook.com/Worthing-Naked-Bike-Ride-263149687363741/?fref=... therefore this year we are all riding together on Sunday morning (2015 was over both days).
We will meet at the bottom of George Fifth Ave where there is free (on road) parking, and ride along the shared use prom to Beach House Gardens, making this ride ideal for kids who aren't ready for traffic!
This is an ideal opportunity to pull out that old cruiser, pump up the tyres on the Raleigh Shopper or polish your show bike, as we will be riding slow and steady, and won't leave anyone behind. In 2015 there were some fantastic custom bikes, as well as lots of families, all riding together! Have a look at youtube for more of 2015 - https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLPq4sOMMkx6tE7hKM6VNary842AqVlcrk
See you all there, share this event as much as possible, and don't forget to head to the main Velodrome page as well - West Sussex had the most hits of all their locations last year! https://www.facebook.com/Streetvelodrome/?fref=ts
