Richmond Park Loop

Richmond Park Loop

Sat, Jun 13, 11:30 AM
From The Joyride Collective - LGBTQ+ women’s cycling/social club

The Joyride Collective is up and running (well, cycling)! For our first meet up we are taking on the Richmond Park Loop. Grab your bike, and head to The Gate Kitchen, Bar & Terrace (TW10 6RP) to meet for 12:30pm on Saturday June 13th. Once all the intros are done we will then set off on the Richmond Park Loop, taking approximately 30mins per lap (likely we will do 2 laps, one clockwise, one anti-clockwise to face those gruesome hills head on!). The pace will be recreational, don’t worry if you’re not a seasoned professional, we are all just here to have fun and if those hills beat you, then getting off and pushing is not frowned upon! Then of course we will head to a local pub/cafe for some well earned drinks! Bring friends, dogs, turn up alone, either way don’t worry, you will receive a warm welcome! Let’s ride, Lindsay xx
