... we ride Cross.
Pure and simple, this club is about not only putting a race number on every sunday through the winter, although that will happen, its also about getting off the roads and using cross bikes to train on and more simply just to get out there and have fun.
The concept came about through a desire not to have to venture onto the dangerous winter roads in winter to train when we have such a good network of trails ... Cross bikes are under utilised.. most only see a short racing season ... this shouldn't be the case as the cross bike allows a much more diverse selection of rides to be used to get the valuable winter base miles in.
The club jersey is now so close to completion it hurts... sponsors have been secured.. riders are ready.
We will use this blog to detail the forthcoming cross season and the exploits of those willing to pull on a Cross Club jersey and suffer in the mud for 50 plus a lap.
We envisage t shirts and cycling caps will be available to buy for those wishing to support and soon there will be a weekly Saturday club run.. on cross bikes of course... details to be confirmed.
