roadcc office rideout (19)Come Join us for a Post Christmas Rideout - 29th Dec
Everyone loves a little Christmas break right? For one thing it gives you time to ride your bike during the week so why not come on a little jolly with road.cc and burn off the festive fuzziness.
We're planning a 'Turkey Burner' ride on Tuesday 29th December, 11am from the road.cc HQ in Bath and would love it if you could join us for a little social bimble around the local lanes. We're not sure of the exact route yet but the Mendips have been mentioned and we'll even chuck in a coffee stop.
If you fancy it stick your name down here.
Don't forget we've also got our rideouts planned from the Hargroves Cycles stores in the new year so make sure you get the dates down in those 2016 diaries.
We're in Swindon on the 24th January and Chichester on February 21st.
Register here for Swindon and here for Chichester.
Since writing his first bike review for road.cc back in early 2009 senior product reviewer Stu has tested more than a thousand pieces of kit, and hundreds of bikes.
With an HND in mechanical engineering and previous roles as a CNC programmer/machinist, draughtsman and development engineer (working in new product design) Stu understands what it takes to bring a product to market. A mix of that knowledge combined with his love of road and gravel cycling puts him in the ideal position to put the latest kit through its paces.
He first made the switch to road cycling in 1999, primarily for fitness, but it didn’t take long for his competitive side to take over which led to around ten years as a time triallist and some pretty decent results. These days though riding is more about escapism, keeping the weight off and just enjoying the fact that he gets to ride the latest technology as part of his day job.
Of course we know that particular rule is very flexible - in some places drivers crossing solid white lines and failing to collide with cyclists...
