Join the Swindon team road.cc rideout on 24th January

Want to ride with road.cc? Our nest Rideout is starting in Swindon on 24th January

The first Team road.cc rideout of 2016 is nearly upon us so if you can make it to Swindon, Wiltshire a week Sunday (24th Jan) then why not get your name down and come and join us for a loop through the lanes to Cirencester and back.

The team at Hargroves Cycles will be laying on the hospitality once again with pre and post ride refreshments plus there will be technical support on hand if you need it. Some of the staff will even be leading the rides. 

That's right 'rides' - we'll be laying on a couple to suit your legs and mood.

The shorter option is a relatively flat 55km taking in the countryside and water parks of the Cotswolds with a cafe stop in Cirencester at the mid way point.

The longer route will head off in the same direction but will add on an extra 20km and a few more meters of climbing. Don't worry, you'll still be getting your coffee stop on this one too.

We'll decide on pace on the day when we know who's doing what but the usual club rules will apply, no one will be left behind. It's a social group ride after all and we want everyone to have plenty of fun.

Alongside the Hargroves team some of the road.cc staff will be there also, (I will be for sure) flitting around the groups out on the road and mingling at the store.

If you want to come along register here - it's free!!

Next month Hargroves will be working with us to put on another rideout from their Chichester store on the 21st February. We'll be back with more details soon but it will follow the same setup as above, a couple of routes, cafe stop etc. Registration is here.

If you fancy joining Team road.cc click here to see what benefits are on offer, Hargroves offer a 5% discount off of full price items in store for example.

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!
