Cycling for fun
Membership of the Cycling for fun group is open to all Southport U3A members on the understanding that their cycles are in a roadworthy condition for all events.
Rides
* Take place on a regular basis between spring and autumn, March to September and will vary on the day of the week as well as the frequency of rides. We plan to have at least one per month with an odd one now and again.
* Are usually between 10 and 15 miles in length and ridden at a steady pace, at the speed of the slowest rider.
* Are ridden on cycle tracks / paths & minor roads where possible but do use main roads occasionally
* Routes are local to the area but some will make use of the Merseyrail from time to time enabling most members to utilise train passes.
* Where possible all rides will include a comfort / refreshment break
* Group members are encouraged to suggest routes and/or be leaders for the day
Persons interested in joining the group are encouraged to register on the website or contact a Cycling For Fun group leader for further information.
