Sunday club run to watch 2 Upp riders,


Sunday rides are now on winter mode, which means a bit slower . We want you to try them so any ride will be taylored to the slowest rider! This sundays run will go to Warnham Nature Reserve, which is really pretty in the autumn.

Grand Prix des Gentlemen - Pictures













Hi all, see attached some pictures from today. It was a lovely but cold and partially very foggy morning, that is why I gave up taking more pictures after Andy and Grant were through the finish - it was simply too cold! Sorry Mike and Phil.... The tea stop afterwards was more to my taste then. See you, Mel

Flying the Phoenix colours in India!



I've just returned from a 4 day cycle ride in Rajasthan! We flew to Delhi, caught the sleeper train to Jodhpur, where we picked up local single gear bikes and proceeded to ride to a small village that my company supports in Udaihpur, called Udawad!

We donated the bikes to the local children who will find it easier (and much more fun) to reach the school that we've helped them build.

The total mileage of our cycle was 260km, across some truly awful terrain: potholes like you wouldn't believe (there really was no point in signaling to the cyclist behind), stream crossings, crazy traffic and cow dodging!

There were 64 riders plus a support crew. We were given 2 branded cycle jerseys to wear on various days, but I couldn't resist flying the Phoenix colours on the 2nd day (see attached), which were most admired by all. Felt very proud :) happy

Many pics were taken on 63 other cameras, so will send through any more snaps of the Phoenix colours in India as and when I see them.
