| Venue: | The Buttercross |
The group is neither super-fit nor competitive and welcomes both current and would-be riders.
We meet at the Buttercross every Wednesday at 10am, ride for an hour, then break for coffee before cycling back to Whittlesey - usually returning around 1 o'clock.
The pace is never strenuous. Nobody would care if it had to be slower to accommodate a new rider.
If you are happy to potter on a bike and break off for a chat and refreshment, you are guaranteed to fit in. If your ambition is to take on Bradley Wiggins, then I can recommend more suitable clubs.
Please note, before your first meeting, you must contact a Cycling Group Leader: either - Dave Combe or Sue Clarke .
