Roaring Reds Bison Hill climb! Some of you Roaring Reds have been faithfully hill climbing with us in the evenings. Come and put this into practice and join us to climb up Bison! This will be a 29 mile ride and will include 1,281ft of climbing. The speed on the flat will be around 12-13 mph and we will wait at the top of hills to regroup. No one will be dropped! No coffee stop until the end in case people would rather skip the coffee and head back to their busy lives. The coffee stop is The Hub in Redbourne. Suitable for road bikes with skinny road wheels. The usual Breeze ethos - lots of fun and no-one gets left behind! Group size will be limited to 8 riders so sign up now to avoid disappointment (and fresh legs!). Here is another link to the route - www.plotaroute.com/route/207018 If you have never been up Bison hill before, here is a video by local Bike cycling club Beatbike. Watch this and see if you can emulate this on the 7th!

Please wear a helmet, dress according to the weather conditions and bring enough liquid / food to sustain you on this exciting ride!
