The ride will head up Stanway Hill, in groups of no more than six. Please download the route & note the Sports Ride will meet in Kings Square by Costa Coffee. Coffee at Brockworth to finish.

Note that although this is race training the rules of the road still apply. Be courteous to other road users and ease the pace when going through built up areas. Remember:

1. It’s not a race, it’s training
2. Aim for a maximum group size of no more than six, and space groups two minutes or more apart
3. Everyone should work together but ride through smoothly and ease off when you come off the front
4. Have fun, be safe, and follow the Club’s Covid guidelines. This group will meet outside Costa Coffee in Kings Square
