Sunday 22ND SEPTEMBER 2024 - Revised long route -new
“Come and Try” short ride along with Medium ride.
Start/Finish: St Ives, Cambridgeshire
previously known as Richardson and Cambridgeshire Rumble, now in its 12 season
The newly named Rumble Revival has moved to later in the season we hope that warmer conditions will prevail. The routes are mainly the same but with slight changes in the long route to use the Woodnewton location twice from different directions.
Plus, we have added again a “Come and Try” Short ride, for beginners and those wanting a short but testing ride.
However, do not be fooled as the distance and sometimes with the wind could offer a good challenge for the long ride on a revised route for 2024. If you want a good challenge the medium ride will be good enough test for the legs.
HQ and registration will be held at St Ivo Centre where tea and coffee will be available before and after the ride.
We plan to have mechanical support at the start for quick bike checks if required.
The feed at Woodnewton Village Hall will have opening and closing times for the longer routes and times will be posted at Registration based on 10mph average.
On your return to the finish, everyone will receive a medal, and snack.
