This week's RideCatcher round-up features five rides which you'll have no problems rolling up and riding this weekend.
Where possible, we suggest that you offer these fantastic event organisers a friendly phonecall and warning that you'll be attending. Contact details for all of the events can be found by following the links embedded in their titles below.
Unfortunately, if you live anywhere north of Birmingham, we haven't got much to offer you this week. However, if you want to feel like you're part of something bigger, you can join in with our #mycyclingweekend and send us photos of what you've decided to do instead.
July 18
56km or 160km - £30 - £40 on the day
We don't normally do mountain bikes here on road.cc. But this ride is not only for a fantastic cause, it also looks bloody hard, and it's across some pretty beautiful countryside.
Only problem is, you'll have to dig out your mountain bike.
July 19
39km, 63km or 84km - £25 (£28 on the day)
This is a women's only event over in Wales. Part of a wider cycling festival, and with three different routes to choose from, there'll be something for everyone over in Llandrindod Wells this weekend.

The Tour of the Cotswolds is now in its fourth year, and it's been building steadily on its successes. Two routes will give you plenty of option, depending how fresh you're feeling.

FInally, the Suffolk Spinner, with its nice range of ride distances will give your legs a decent workout if you've not got much to do in the south of the country this weekend.
it feels a conveniant donkey to put the tail on imo, and Im not saying some members didnt quit BC because of the Shell thing, but Im not entirely...
I'm never convinced how helmets with built in cameras and lights can be acceptable safe. Sounds like a good way to get a camera embedded in your...
Did I mention that it costs £580?
Yeah - and one of the passengers had the gall to say that the *driver* had taken a wrong turn!...
Don't worry! They've got plenty of others they can use!...
Well what is that way? Are you suggesting that every bend on every descent can be barriered over a 180km mountain stage?
Hopefully it'll still be allowed for recreational use.
Well Gloucestershire are getting better. I'm being told whether or not action is to be taken, but not what action, within a few days of each report...
Churnalism nowadays - mostly clickbait stuff and regurgitation in the local rags/comics and beyond.
I'm glad the barrier wasn't damaged. Whew, close one there! \s
