rp laps

Richmond Park Wednesday Evenings - May, June, July and August.

Meet at Roehampton Gate - Colicci Cafe for 6.30pm. Rollout 6.45pm - anti-clockwise.

LAP 1
The first lap is an easy pace ‘chat-lap’ for all, a chance to warm-up and work out which PG’s can be pulled together from the riders there on the evening. This first lap heads up past the ballet School and Pen Ponds before returning to Roehampton Gate.

LAPs 2, 3 (and 4?)
Re-group and set off in PG’s.
The pace you want to ride is up to you. If you’d like to test yourself with fellow members, or try moving up a PG from the one you typically join on weekend rides, give it a go!
It is, of course, ok to just stay in ‘chat-lap’ mode if that’s your evening vibe.

This is also an opportunity to practice group riding skills - sharing the pace with fellow members taking turns on the front. Riding together and keeping your group close - makes it easier all round, a chance to recover on someone’s wheel…and you’ll be able to go faster overall too!

Warm-down & Refreshments.
After all that exertion it’s a gentle ride back to Balham and for those who wish a stop by the Belleville Taproom. A great way to round off a summer evening.

See you out there soon.
