Route :
The ‘fast’ ride is intended to offer something different, not merely a faster version of the tempo ride.
The emphasis is on aerobic endurance training. It’s generally a continuous 3 hour plus ride with an optional coffee stop at the end (we will stop for toilet break and/or grab more drinks as necessary).
It’s a non-drop ride with the emphasis on teamwork to get around the route as quickly as possible (together), without pushing people into the red. If you feel strong – ride on the front. If not – ride in the group. That way everyone has a good workout.
The route will generally planned on good roads, where we can safely ride quickly in a group. Also, we will generally ride the hills and the headwind in the first 2/3 of the route, with a fast flat finish back into Gloucester.
Not having a coffee stop also allows us to get back earlier, which may suit people with child care responsibilities, etc.
