Hi James and thanks for taking an interest in the club. The only regular ride that goes out is the Sunday ride I'm afraid. After the ride out from Calpton we splits into several groups at Epping Forest depending on ability and the time constraints of the riders on the day. However, club members do arrange rides - often through the forum - for other times such as Saturday morning. So it is worth checking the forum regularly to see. There isn't a club Strava page put many of the club members use Strava and post club rides up there. I'm afraid all I can suggest is that you have a bit of a search on Strava for rides in the local area. Just so you know, we generally ride out into Essex or Hertford on Sundays. Hope this helps.

Great. I'll see you then.

Wednesday lunchtime would be good for me. Just drop me a text when you are around and I'll come and meet you. Maybe we could grab lunch together?

Extra small is sometimes good for me on Rapha. The jersey I was wearing yesterday was x-small and is perfect. It's the Italian one you're selling I really like.

Hey Daichi. You didn't tell me you were selling the jerseys yesterday. I would be interested in the x-small ones and maybe the small but I would need to try it. Maybe we can meet somewhere in the week?

Hi Judith,

I have a brand new and unworn club winter jersey and bib longs that don't fit me. What can I do with them? Do I need to sell them on or can I return them?

Cheers,
Jason

Hi Laura. I'm afraid there is no official Thursday night training or coaching going on at the moment. However, it's worth posting something on the forum as I'm sure you may have some interest from others in meeting for informal training sessions at the Velo Park.

As long as the weather holds it's a lovely ride out into Kent. I've signed up for a 9am start. Here's the link on Rider HQ - http://www.riderhq.com/events/67773/rotfl2014

Anybody planning on riding this this year? I would like to but it would be nice to do it with a few others...

Hi Laura,

Thanks for your interest in the club. You do not have to be a member of CCH before coming along on a Sunday club ride and we would be happy to see a new face. We also don't specify how many rides you can join before having to become a club member, although the membership fee is only £20 a year for adults. The only thing I would say is if you don't have much experience at riding with a group please can you read the following regarding what to expect and what is expected from you on a club run -

In terms of how fast and how far the rides go on Sundays this is something that is discussed on the day. We will all leave the club house together and ride to High Beach in Epping Forest as one group where we stop and divide into smaller groups depending on what people want to do.

I hope this answers your questions but please feel free to ask anymore you may have.

Hope to see you at a club run soon.

Jason

Looks great. Just need to buy a Garmin Ant+ dongle - http://www.amazon.co.uk/Garmin-010-01058-00-ANT-CHIP/dp/B00CM381SQ/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1408960116&sr=8-1&keywords=garmin+usb+ant

Keir and I are planning to head out tomorrow for a 2.5 - 3hr ride if anybody would like to join us? It will be a steady paced ride out into Essex and we'll be back in town for lunchtime at the latest. The weather forecast is good and we may even get some sunshine!!
