Team road.cc 'Turkey Burner' Rideout

Come for a Christmas ride with road.cc

The Rideout series has had a bit of a break for the winter months but we thought we'd chuck in a little impromptu event for the week after Christmas, the road.cc 'Turkey Burner' on Tuesday 29th December.

The perfect excuse to escape the in-laws and test that new kit you received from Santa.

The plan? 

Well, we thought we'd head off at 11am for a few miles at a relaxed pace around Bath on some of our favourite 'kit testing routes', then chuck in a cake stop or something before returning to road.cc HQ where we'll scour the office to see what Christmas schwag we can give away.

Plenty of the road.cc staff and club members will be on hand so we're going to be able to run at least a couple of groups depending on ability and average speed so whatever you ride and however you ride it don't be shy, get your name down. 

If that sounds good to you, click here to book your free place and we'll see you on the day.

Don't forget we've still got our January Swindon and February Chichester rideouts to come early in 2016 so if you can't make the Turkey Burner click the links and enter those instead.

This is just one of the events we’re planning for team road.cc members, so if you fancy joining the club – it’s £14.95 a year, for which you’ll receive socks and stickers worth £10.99, £20 off a road.cc classic argyle jersey and 10% off everything in the road.cc shop, plus you'll get a membership card entitling you to discounts at various cafes and shops throughout the country – have a look here

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.

There seems to be a few editorial contributors based in/around Brighton - can one of these be held there?
