RAPHA 101 - MANCHESTER
A welcoming start line for anyone new to the world of road cycling.
SOLD OUT
Overview
Build confidence in a group riding setting and meet like-minded riders in a safe and accessible environment, starting and finishing from Rapha Manchester. Our Rapha 101 sessions provide a stepping stone to other Rapha rides, such as our Saturday Club Ride or on our Wednesday Crew + Clubmates ride. Beginning with an interactive presentation to run you through the basics, we will then head out onto the road to put the theory into practice on a 35km road ride. These rides are open for anyone, from any level of bicycle experience with any bike (flat-bars included) - no RCC Membership necessary. Next session will be on Sunday August 3rd. Any questions, please email: edward.young@rapha.cc

Arrive at the Clubhouse- 9.00am
Arriving at 9.00am, we will begin with a quick coffee before one of our Ride Leaders takes you through a short presentation that will outline the details of the session.
Depart on ride - 9.30am
After the presentation has been completed, we will prepare to get ready to leave the Clubhouse on our 35km ride.
Heading out of the City Centre via Deansgate, you will soon be out of the busy roads and onto the quiet lanes of Dunham. Once out on the lanes, you will have the opportunity to put the theory taught on the presentation into practice.
Halfway round we will be stopping for coffee at Kickback in Altricham, giving us time to reflect on how we are finding our new learnings.
Return to the Clubhouse - 12.00pm
After a short ride back to the City Centre, our Ride Leader will be hanging around for a quick debrief and to answer any questions. All going well, you will have learnt the adequate skills to join us on one of our Wednesday morning Crew + Clubmates or Saturday morning Club Rides.
