What’s this then?

Our rides, which are off/on road, are normally on the second Saturday of each month starting at 11.00am (often from a rail station near Cambridge), but don’t complain if that should change from time to time – we are after all ‘randomly active’.

A trail is laid with checkpoints to allow the slower ones to keep in touch and to minimise the risk of getting lost; back-up maps and clever shortcuts also help. It is completely non-competitive (take it at your own pace), and open to all ages, genders and abilities. We follow a scenic route away from hustle and bustle, approximately 15 miles to a lunchtime regroup, usually a fine pub unknown to the masses. The return route is short, just enough to stimulate a need for more liquid ingestion and an interest in the ‘circle’, convened to investigate the errors and misdemeanours of the day. The post-Bash socialising and ritual are at least as important as the ride itself, and will ensure that you waste the whole of your Saturday – well it beats washing the lawn or mowing the cat! There are additional Friday evening bashes during British Summer Time.
