Finishers will be entitled to a £17 Tour de Ricky entry if they purchase the Finisher’s Roundel at the end (£5). We will be issuing Brevet Cards at the start to be completed as proof of passage.
There have been pre registrations on Strava, pre-registration is not compulsory but recommended as those pre-registering will be guaranteed a Brevet Card which will be required for Tour de Ricky qualification purposes. You can still turn up on the day unregistered and we should have some Brevet Cards available, but once they have been used up, there will be none available so it is safer to register in advance … we have already ordered the printing of the Brevet Cards and cannot now get extra ones added.
RONDE VAN RUSTY 85km ROUTE HERE
RONDE VAN RUSTY SHORT 57km ROUTE HERE
Sunday 15th March the SUNDAY RIDE from Hillingdon Station 9am – TWO ROUTE OPTIONS
Beat Out to the Beech and Beat Out to the Beech Bigger with a Coffee Stop at Beaconsfield are from West London Cycling’s extensive and comprenhensive offering of local cycling routes (founded 2021). There is a cafe stop at 26 or 29km depending on which route you choose.
We offer two route choices at 68km or 71km. It is anticipated that faster riders will take the longer route so that we can all enjoy each other’s company at the coffee stop which falls after the respective deviations.
BEAT OUT TO THE BEECH 68km ROUTE HERE
68km 467m ascent
BEAT OUT TO THE BEECH BIGGER 71km ROUTE HERE
71km 552m ascent
An original route from West London Cycling .. home of the Brand Spanker!
We split into different speed 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.
GROUP RIDING: If you are new to club riding, West London Cycling is a great club to get into it with. Before you start, why not learn a few of cycling’s protocols and etiquettes? It’ll help you slot in and feel at home from the get-go!
