Some forth coming events for you to bear in mind:
Saturday 28th September
There is a London League Cross race at Hog Hill, Cross racing is essentially the half way house between road racing and MTB, ie off road on road type bikes. Great fun and you can do them on a mountain bike. www.londonxleague.co.uk/round-04-2013/ for full details.
Dave Rees will be leading the normal DP ride for the over 15 group of riders- normal rules apply, meet at the Velodrome at 9 am finish at Crystal Palace around 12.30 ish.
Saturday 12th October- DP MTB ride to explore the vertiginous regions of Outer Bromley
Advanced warning for you (shock) of our first in the series of the winter off road rides. Timings and rules will be the same as the standard Saturday ride, start at 9 at the velodrome and finish about 12.30ish at Crystal Palace. Please start to consider how you are going to find a MTB to use on this ride, if you don’t have a bike or cannot borrow one please let either myself or Dave know and we will see what can be found.
Saturday 19th October DP Hill Climb
This is the annual challenge of riding up a beastly hill as fast as possible, we will share the pain by incorporating this into a normal Saturday ride. You don’t have to enter in advance however it would be helpful if you could indicate whether you want to compete.
Thursday evening training at the Velodrome
These are scheduled to start in October – as soon as I have a date and further details I will let you know.
NB For those of your who are racing the London League Cross series please don’t be put off coming on the DP rides, just let Dave or I know you will be racing the next day and we will tailor the ride accordingly.
