This event is open to all 2024 LDCC Members and anyone interested in learning more about the club or gravel riding. Bring a friend.
Important : Helmets are mandatory and please ensure that your bike is in fully functioning order.
What type of Bike? :
A Gravel or Cyclocross Bike is ideal. Given we are often on rough surfaces, doing steep climbs and yes… even wandering into the woods, you will be need a bike that is capable of a handling a variety of conditions, included pavement, gravel, dirt, sand, off-road trails, etc. Some contemporary road bikes will have the capacity to run wider treaded tire and may be suitable. A mountain bike might also be suitable on some rides, but we do find that on long gravel stretches and when speeds increase (depending on the ride), a mountain bike will be completely out-geared and not able to keep up.
