Group Rides
Each Sunday we offer group road rides led by our members over varying distances and speeds to ensure everyone can ride at their level. Every other Sunday during spring/summer we also run a slower G4 ride.
Ride and route details are published on our Facebook page towards the end of each week.
Meeting point: The Propellor monument opposite Dorvics at the bottom of Leighton Buzzard High Street for an 8:30am departure. This may change due to weather — check the Facebook ride post.
The ride speeds and distances are for reference and can change on the day due to group size, terrain, weather and ability.
🟢 Group 4 (G4)
Not just for beginners — also for those looking for a shorter distance at a pace to suit all riders. Speed from 10mph with no-one left behind. Runs on alternating Sundays throughout spring and summer.
🔵 Group 3 (G3)
30–40 miles at up to 14mph (could be faster in agreement with the group). Rides at the pace of the slowest rider — no-one is dropped. All new riders start here.
🟠 Group 2 (G2)
40–50 miles at 15–17mph+ in agreement with the group. Opportunity to change groups at the coffee stop. Regular rotations on the front. Often split into two groups on high-turnout days.
🔴 Group 1 (G1)
50–70 miles at 17–19mph+ in agreement with the group. Rides as a tight group practising regular rotations.
🗓️ Ad-Hoc Rides
Additional rides on some Saturday mornings, Sunday afternoons, and evenings throughout the week. Organised by individual members — look out for posts on Facebook. These may have different formats (hill climbing, training, etc.) so check with the organiser.
