As is tradition at West London Cycling, the day after one of our big events we do everyone’s favourite route, the wonderful Fat Duck Waterside Boult …. a nice short, quick, flat gem with three Michelin Tyres for those who enjoy rich courses when fine riding and route pairing!

Cafe stops at Jenners in Maidenhead and the Rusty Bike in Uxbridge … Photo stops outside the Waterside Inn and on Windsor Bridge, well, it’s tradition innit?

Just turn up at 9am at the Polish War Memorial (A40 Ruislip / Northolt) with the route downloaded on your device. To get the route you need to sign up (free – see button above to subscribe) and then you’ll have access to our routes via the members’ zone tab above (choose routes and rides).

We decide on the day as to how many groups we split into (usually 4 groups during summer) it really depends on who turns up. The faster groups will usually do the longer of the two options with the aim of us all reaching coffee stops at similar times.

You can choose your route on the day, and which group you ride in. As stated above, we generally have several groups on the road, depending on how many people are riding, so it’s flexible and tailored to riders’ needs. The slowest group will generally wait for the slowest rider (or split into sub groups) but you should be able to manage 30kph on flat stretches with an average speed of around 22kph over the distance. Faster groups will be more speedy of course.

OPTION ONE: Fat Duck Waterside Boult 57km

OPTION TWO: Fat Duck Waterside Boult Extra Course 63km
