During recent weeks we have welcomed another three new members who have joined Hampton Wick Cycling Club. We have also seen our first membership upgrade, with our Beginner Member, Eunice, upgrading to a Full Membership. The club is growing and we thank the existing members for making the newcomers welcome and feel at ease.
Last week saw the annual Dunwich Dynamo night ride from London the the Suffolk coast. Well done to Sebastian and Ify for completing this ride.
Our midweek pretzel rides in Richmond Park are proving to be popular and we will continue these for the rest of the summer and for as long as the weather permits.
We have visited familar destinations on our recent Sunday rides, such as Box Hill and Effingham, where we also had our biggest turn out for a Club Ride. We have also visited new destinations such as the Isle of Wight. A spectacular route designed by Stephen which took mostly the coastal roads of the island, this enabled us to see some picturesque views and some hilly roads. With a fair bit of climbing involved, the island is certainly not flat! We are now looking to make this an annual ride for the club. It certainly feels special having to cross the Solent by ferry and we cannot wait to return.
Upcoming rides will see us visit Guildford and Henley-on-Thames. As always, we welcome more people to come along and join us on our forthcoming rides.
You can visit our Meetup page and request to join to come along for an induction ride or to join our Beginners Group. We look forward to meeting you soon.
