Club Rides - from Chapelfield Gardens, Norwich

We currently offer club rides on Sunday and Friday, meeting by the bandstand in Chapelfield Gardens. If you are not currently a member and are planning on joining us, please email clubrun@icenivelo.co.uk beforehand so we know to expect you but also so we can contact you if a ride is not going ahead (e.g. such as when a club event is being run).

Sunday Club Ride (All weathers, except ice)

The Sunday ride is the main event in the club’s weekly calendar and will involve a ride to a café usually on or just after half way round the route.  Routes will be shared on a Thursday through Garmin Connect, Ridewithgps and Spond so you can have these to hand on the day.  If not, plenty of other riders will have these to warn you when a turn is coming.

Winter Start time is 8:30am, with two distance's being approximately 40 miles at a pace of at least 15mph+ or 50 miles at a pace of at least 16mph+.  Where possible we will aim for the same cafe.

Summer Start time is 8am, with a typical distance of 50-65 miles and possibly two/three groups - steady, medium and fast.  Average pace being 16-17mph (steady), 17-18mph (medium) and 19+ mph(fast)

Friday Frolic (when weather dictates)

Daytime rides for gentlefolk of leisure, these will run in the summer months when dry. A social ride of around 30-35 miles at the conversational pace of 15-16 mph. A good opportunity for nearer destinations than the Sunday routes, opening up some splendid cafe stops, usually with a quick pub stop near the end. Fridays 0930 Chapelfield Gardens, check Facebook for details.

Wednesday Wobble

The wobble is usually run between late March and late October and starts at 6.30pm.  The rides will usually average between 15.5mph and 17mph and the group will decide during the ride where to end and this will be an (optional) pub stop which is usually within the city ring road (e.g. Fat Cat) for a drink and “English tapas”.
