Club Ride Schedule
The weekly Club Ride schedule is shown below
ALL RIDES NOW START FROM LIBERTY SQUARE , OUTSIDE BIG COSTA , KINGS HILL.
It should be noted that this is a framework for the club runs but they are flexible depending on who is riding. Where necessary smaller sub-groups are formed on the day which helps support both faster and slower riders, and ensures that no rider is left behind.
Ride information for any of the day's rides is communicated via our KHWCC WhatsApp Info group. This will include the ride leader and the distance/route to be taken. Usually, the routes are chosen from the website Route Library. Once you become a member you will automatically be added to our WhatsApp Info/Ride/Chat/Merchandise Groups.
Kings Hill Wheelers also have a private club on Strava and all club members who use Strava are invited to join by clicking HERE.
Guest riders are permitted 3 rides before deciding whether to become a member, and are welcomed on any of the rides below. You can submit a request for Guest rides through the Contact Form at the end of this website. When accepted you will be added to our Whatsapp Guest rider group.
We would also recommend that you download a copy of our RIDE ETIQUETTE from the link at the foot of this section as you will be expected to adhere to these rules during your rides.
KHWCC ROUTE LIBRARY
The club route library can be found on Ride with GPS (RWGPS) using the links below depending on the desired distance. To add any new routes to the library please contact the Club Rides Manager.
