Sheffield 8.jpgLast call for Swindon - Team road.cc rideout
Our first Team road.cc rideout of 2016 is this coming Sunday (24th) at the Hargroves Cycles store in Swindon, Wiltshire.
We've got a couple of routes planned for you, one at 55km and the other is 71km with both heading to Cirencester for a well earned cake and coffee stop before looping back to Swindon for some post ride nibbles and the famous road.cc schwag handout.
Both routes are pretty flat and will be kept off of the main roads, using the lanes and taking in the scenery of the Cotswolds. We can't promise any sun though!
Hargroves will be laying on some pre-ride coffee and tea in time for the riders briefing at 9am before we set off at 9:30. The staff will also be on hand for any mechanical issues.
Sound fun? Well if you think so then click here to get your name registered and we'll see you Sunday bright and early.
The store is on an industrial estate so there is plenty of parking.
Oh yeah - it's free!!
Chichester
Can't make Swindon this weekend, well what about Chichester?
We've teamed up with the guys at Hargroves again for another rideout from their Chichester store on the 23rd February - click here to register.
Team road.cc team member Ian Upham is coming up with some routes as we write this so we'll be back with full details soon.
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!
That Norwegian infrastructure OMG.
Are you sure? Norway is socialist and has a very high quality of life.
As someone who drives a diesel, I was looking at that and thinking "that's been the normal price for ages!" 😭
Glad I got mine before that change in ownership.
And 3 of the 'workers' are just leaning!
Same sketch everywhere, or so it seems. Take Whitelegg Way in Bournemouth. Wide cycle lanes put in both sides of a (formerly very wide) two lane...
Sounds cool. I haven't taken an "unnecessary flight" since 1992. Flown many times since then for work, but you can't patrol the Iraqi desert, or...
My first thought on reading the headline was "ooh, has Clevedon put in covered bike parking now?".
I rented a car a few weeks ago, a Skoda Octavia (needed a big car for a weekend), and the ride was astonishingly good compared to my own 10 year...
Silly.
