BSCC Sunday Social - All Groups

One event for all ride paces.

Depending on attendees and group number, the ride could spilt into these three types of ride:

1. Fast Ride – this will typically be 20mph+ (32kph+) average and may turn into a drop ride if the group want to. This ride is for those who want a hard ride and you should only join this ride type if you can keep the speed above 20mph and be ready to head home on your own if the riders in the group choose to turn it into a drop ride and you don’t keep up.

2. Tempo Ride – this will be a no drop ride under 20mph (32 kph-) average and will regulate pace based on the riders out on the day. You should join this ride if you want a solid ride out but be prepared to wait at the top of hills to regroup throughout and vary your pace to the slowest rider when in a group.

3. Recovery Ride – This will be a no drop ride and will be typically under 17mph (27 kph) average and will regulate pace based on the riders on the day. You should join this ride is you are recovering or are looking to build up your pace over time to get ready for a Tempo Ride. You should expect to wait at the top of hills and vary your pace to the slowest rider when in a group.

Speak up if it’s too fast and look after rider on your wheel and communicate when making turns or stopping and for hazards. Everyone gets home.
