Come for a ride with team road.cc in the Peak District

road.cc are heading North for a rideout in the Peaks, come and join us - it's free!

It's nearly a year ago since the team road.cc crew headed up to Sheffield for a rideout and we must have been well behaved because Decathlon have invited us back for another go.

Being situated just a few miles from the Peak District the area lends itself well to some challenging riding and excellent scenery so the guys at Decathlon are going to come up with a couple of routes. The usual 25-30 miles for the shorter and 35-40 miles for the longer version and if you haven't been on one of our rideouts before then the best way to describe them is a friendly club run basically.

 

We'll have ride leaders and back markers for each ride and everyone is looked after and kept within the group.

The plan is to meet up at Decathlon by 9am for coffee on Sunday 2nd October with a quick rider briefing to follow at 9:30. We'll then depart on whichever route you choose before returning for more refreshments and socialising. Every rider that turns up will also receive a goody bag from Decathlon.

Interested?

 

Then get your name down here, we have limited spaces so don't hang about and it's all completely free!! 

As part of the tech team here at F-At Digital, senior product reviewer Stu spends the majority of his time writing in-depth reviews for road.cc, off-road.cc and ebiketips using the knowledge gained from testing over 1,500 pieces of kit (plus 100's of bikes) since starting out as a freelancer back in 2009. After first throwing his leg over a race bike back in 2000, Stu's ridden more than 170,000 miles on road, time-trial, track, and gravel bikes, and while he's put his racing days behind him, he still likes to smash the pedals rather than take things easy. With a background in design and engineering, he has an obsession with how things are developed and manufactured, has a borderline fetish for handbuilt metal frames and finds a rim braked road bike very aesthetically pleasing!

Perhaps head over to Monsal Hill Climb?

http://www.monsalhillclimb.org.uk/entry_details.html

Some would say it's the best HC event other than Nationals from a spectators side of things. Regular riders include the Downing brothers, Graham Briggs, Jessie walker, Dame Sarah Storey, Adam Blythe and there is talk of Ben Swift having a bang this year. Course record is held by Malcolm Elliott (Google him if you don't know who this legend is)

You might even get to see me race indecision

I promise it's well worth a watch and there are loads of cafes and pubs about for the usual Sunday cycling munchies.
