With the warmer weather not far away now hopefully our thoughts turn to the end of winter and the coming of spring. We will soon start to see people getting back on their bikes and touring around the local roads near our offices in Brabourne. Among them are sure to be members of Ashford Road Cycling Club (ARCC) which is sponsored by Lifeboat Lettings.
We announced last year that Lifeboat Lettings sponsors Ashford Road Cycling Club for the next season. Rick Walton, one of the directors of the company is a keen road cyclist and was the driving force behind negotiating the sponsorship deal.
ARCC is a friendly local cycling club catering for all abilities. A quote from the club website:
‘Club runs will wait for everyone, it is a “no drop policy”, therefore if your lacking in ability to get up a hill please don’t worry, someone will wait at the top, if you do not appear in a reasonable timeframe one of the group will come looking for you (puncture kit in hand).’
‘By riding in a group you may will learn new road skills and be able to chat to more experienced riders out on the run, generally speaking it is the best place to learn about how to improve technique, share experiences and cover distances at a greater speed.’
For more information on how you can get involved with ARCC please visit their website.
