CYCLING: Wyre Forest CRC riders are starting their winter schedule of training which includes a Sunday morning club ride.

These rides attract the competitive members of the club and tend to be run over a long distance at a brisk pace which prospective new members and cyclists returning to the sport after a long absence may find daunting.

To accommodate these riders, Richard Pedersen and Rachel Heath will be organising rides of a much shorter distance, which will be at a more leisurely pace through the lanes of Worcestershire, starting from the Stourport Sports Club on Sunday (9am).

All are welcome who have an interest in all aspects of competitive cycling, but children must be accompanied by an adult.
