Fast (training) ride to Malvern/Long Green

“Fast Rides” are around three hours with a coffee stop at the end. Average Speed of about 18-20 mph. They will split into two groups, to help with mixed abilities & to encourage new riders, and to help anyone recovering from injuries. Once two groups are formed, there is no need to wait at the climbs, stay in two groups and if anyone falls off the faster group they will hopefully be picked up by the second group.

“Fast Rides” DO NOT follow “Club Ride” practice, in that although they always regroup after a climb, participants must be prepared to be dropped on the run in back to Gloucester over the last 5-10 miles, if it speeds up at the end of the ride. They do not usually stop for coffee until the end of the ride. Participants need to be capable of 20+ mph bunch riding for at least 3 hours. For an impression of the riding style check out a video of the Tuesday night Chain Gang If you would like to know about our other Sunday ride options see here and for a list of events similar to this one click on event tags below.
