Sable Rides are for people of all ages who want to cycle for pleasure and leisure but do not want to get involved in being competitive. We meet once a month and are a very friendly group that loves to welcome new participants. The rides are varied and flexible so that we can meet the needs of everyone who turns up at the start.
New riders have tended to like a shorter route of around ten miles but, once people have practiced and their confidence has increased, subsequent rides have been up to 20 miles.
Longer rides can be arranged on requests as some of our riders do cycle longer distances
People have joined the rides for different reasons:
To regain their confidence after not riding for a long time
To meet new people
To see new parts of this beautiful countryside
To improve their health and fitness and enjoy the fresh air
Because they ride a tandem and the other half of the tandem team wants to!
Sable Rides may not suit those that want to ride competitively or want to become super fit but all cyclists are welcome and it can be a good way of having a gentle recovery ride if you have tended to over train.
What people have said about joining Sable Rides:
“Following a 'Cycling for Health' course organised by Hambleton District Council at Hawes I treated myself to a Brompton folding bike and looked for a cycling
group in my area (Askrigg). A leaflet from SABLE attracted me to join one of their Sunday morning rides to Kirkby Fleetham. What a caring, welcoming group
of cyclists! It is absolutely true that nobody gets left behind, even when aged 75 like me! I look forward to more fun on the Sunday morning rides, coming
home with a great sense of achievement”.
