Social Cycling
Fridays, Sundays and any other days
Convener: John Downie
A group of U3A cyclists of various levels of enthusiasm and ability meet for regular cycle rides of widely different duration and difficulty. These take place throughout the year, fair weather as well as sometimes foul. We usually meet up at a suitable coffee venue and somewhere on the ride have lunch. Both on road and off road rides are popular, but almost exclusively on cycle paths, off road tracks and minor roads. Currently we aim to ride on most Fridays, starting at around 1030. Most of our rides are between 15 and 35 miles. E-Bikes are becoming more popular and are also encouraged. We sometimes have the occasional group excursions further afield than Sussex. Help with basic cycle maintenance is available. If you are interested please contact the convener to be added to the email list. It helps to have a reasonable level of fitness though this is rapidly acquired if you come on regular rides.
