Long Distance cycle buddy needed

[City]

Hi,

I am la female rider looking for a male or female cycling buddy to join me on my weekly long distance rides. At the moment I ride on a Monday, Wednesday and Friday two being 65 miles and one 45 miles with the average speed being anything between 13mph - 15mph (depending on the strength of the tail wind :0)...)

Most of my rides I do are from Brockley to Surrey and one of the days being spent riding around in Richmond Park.

I would like someone to train with, I am happy to move my days around if need be but I am unable to ride over the weekends as this is when I work.

It would be really great to have the company of another human being rather than just the cycle computer!

Drop me a email if your interested

 

[Chapeau!]

Are there any cycling clubs in your area?.

Yes there are loads in my local area that do group rides on the weekends.

My club does weekend rides but there are also quite a few of us who ride during the week too, either with a few people in the daytime or as a group in the evenings (though with the days getting shorter that will happen less often).

It's really worth joining a club so you can get on a club forum and find some regular training partners. The Dulwich Paragon apparently have a google group with people who ride at around your pace, have a look there?

Hi Smaryka,

Thanks for the links. I've been with a cycling club now for a couple of years but they don't do weekday or evening rides. I know some clubs that do weekday evening rides but thats in a chaingang and their just way too fast for me to keep up with them.

I will have a look at the links you posted hopefully I maybe able to find something on there.

Thanks Smaryka
