It’s all about your ego writing cheques your body can't cash

Winter (Dec-Feb) LAFTER rides.. (Long And Fast Total Effort Rides)

Sat, 40-60 miles

Sun, 70-150 miles

Group training rides for the racing lads and anyone wanting to get fit, for the benefit of the guy suffering on your wheel please fit full length mudguards, mudflap and decent winter tyres. To get the most out of them everyone takes a turn on the front so the pace and headwind is shared. The hardest training rides around with top testers and road men out.

Everyone's welcome but remember these rides are hard race preparation, if you get dropped early on you'd possibly benefit more by trying a different LRC ride.

Saturday 9.30am, finish around 12.30 at Freddies cafe.

Sunday 9am. Both start from Bolton Arena.

 

Alternative LRC Sunday rides:

• Sunday club-runs continue throughout winter at a more social pace - 9am at the Latino Lounge (Bradshaw)

• Sunday, Tuesday and Thursday STRAW (Steady Training Ride All Welcome) rides will be organised via the message board.
