When: Fortnightly on Thursdays 9:30
(Second and Fourth Thursday)

We organise bike rides on the second and fourth Thursday of each month and usually cycle between 30 and 40 miles. We meet up around 9:30 (depending on the time of year) and stop for coffee and lunch then finish around mid-afternoon.

We use a WhatsApp group to co-ordinate our rides and chat amongst ourselves. The meeting place and details of the route are published by the ride leader before each ride. We limit the number on each ride to 12.

Most rides start from Thornbury but sometimes we transport our bikes to starting points further afield, e.g. Bitton Station for the Bristol-Bath Railway Path or to Tetbury.

Our rides are sociable as well as good for your fitness. We ride at a pace to suit everyone and regularly stop to regroup to ensure no one gets left behind. It's a great way to explore the cycle friendly lanes around Thornbury and beyond.
