Please respect all road users when riding in a group.\n\nNote that this event is for GCCC members only. Please respect this: if you bring someone along as a guest\, please encourage them to join.

Gloucestershire’s first-ever full stage of the Tour of Britain will feature Tewkesbury\, the Cotswolds\, South Gloucestershire\, and a finish alongside the historic Gloucester Docks. \nThe race’s visit to Gloucestershire comes a little over a year after the Women’s Tour also visited the picturesque county for the first time. Stage seven’s route is unchanged from the course that was set to feature in last year’s race prior to its cancellation. \nFeatured in the final 30 kilometres are the climbs of Crawley Hill (1.7 kilometres\, maximum gradient of 21.5%) and an uncategorised ascent at Painswick (three kilometres\, average gradient of 5%\, maximum of 15.8%). The latter\, located 12 kilometres southeast of the finish line\, will likely see some of the day’s most thrilling racing. \nWith the start and finish locations lying in close proximity\, and the event being held on a Saturday\, an unforgettable race day atmosphere is expected at this free-to-watch sporting spectacle. \nThe Club ride will commence from Jane’s Pantry at Twigworth and watch the riders en route at Castle Hill\, Winchcombe. There will hopefully be refreshments at Royal Oak\, Andoversford. Those wanting to head back and catch the finish would be best to descend Castle Street into Winchcombe.

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. \n“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.
