Cycle Republic Logo.pngCome and ride with team road.cc in London
We're heading back down south for our next rideout after being in Sheffield a few weeks ago. This time we've teamed up with Cycle Republic to host a ride from their store in South London so if you're free on Sunday, 13th November then get your name down and we'll see you there.
For the time being at least the majority of Cycle Republic stores are in Central London but we are visiting the suburbs and going south of the river to their Purley, Croydon shop.
It may be our first colaboration with Cycle Republic but the layout will still be pretty familiar. A meet up at around 9am for coffee and snacks before a rider briefing at 9:30am sets us up for the day.
Cycle Republic will be laying on the ride leaders who have plenty of local knowledge to take us round the route with two groups being on offer travelling at different speeds. You can decide on the day which one you fancy being part of.
Like any good club run there will be a midway cafe stop for cake and banter and on our return to the store we'll dish out the goodies in our road.cc Schwagaway for every finisher.
What's not to like?

Date: 13/11/16
Time: 9am
Where: Cycle Republic, 20 Russell Hill Rd, Purley, CR8 2LA
As part of the Tech Hub here at F-At Digital, our senior product reviewer Stu uses the knowledge gained from putting well over a 1,000 products through their paces (including hundreds of bikes) to write in-depth reviews of a huge range of kit. After first throwing his leg over a race bike back in 2000, Stu's ridden more than 160,000 miles on road, time-trial, track, and gravel bikes, and while he's put his racing days behind him he still likes to smash the pedals rather than take things easy. Although, as he spends a fair bit of his time reviewing ebikes these days he's becoming an expert in letting the motor take the strain. He's also waiting for 23mm race tyres to make a comeback!
