CTC Exeter Sunday Rides
COVID 19
We are organising rides in small groups of up to 6 in line with guidance from Cycling UK and the Government. You will need to book in advance so we can organise groups and maintain a record in case we need to contact you if anyone in your group should later test positive or show symptoms of Covid 19. If you are feeling unwell please stay home.
It's important that groups don't mix at coffee stops and we continue to follow Guidance on controlling Coronovirus; In particular, the need for washing hands before eating and maintaining social distancing.

The table below outlines our planned Sunday rides. Please book in advance, either by clicking on the link in the table or by phoning Lyndsay.
Details of all start locations are given here. Categories ('Cat') in the table below are:
A - Longer and faster rides (usually 35 to 60 miles long often with repeated climbing and steep hills) B - Shorter and slower rides (usually 25 to 40 miles over a day, with some hills and a relaxed pace)
Rides may be cancelled at short notice in severe weather or icy conditions.
If in doubt, check this web site for last minute cancellations or ring Ian Holding 07774 873 086.

Sunday rides start at 10 am or as shown in the programme, at locations in and around Exeter.
We ride about 10 miles to an 'elevenses' stop at a cafe, where riders often join or leave the ride. We then ride to a lunch stop, for which most riders carry a picnic lunch. We often aim to return by around 4pm, having usually ridden between 35 and 60 miles. It's a good idea to carry plenty to drink and some energy-giving food such as bananas and muesli bars.
The leader navigates and keeps the group together. Average speed is adjusted to suit the slowest rider, but is typically 10-12 mph.
Newcomers are welcome on all of our rides, and we have a web page which gives useful information for new riders.
We want our rides to be as safe as possible, so we have some guidelines called "Our Group Riding Guidance & Principles".
If you have any other questions beforehand please contact our secretary, Lyndsay Kyrke-Smith email lyndsaykyrkesmith@gmail.com or telephone 01392 469 838
