Good news for any Brixton cyclists: local resident Matthew Canty has created the Brixton Cycling Meetup Group.
He is looking to lead groups of keen cyclists out of the city, ensuring people get to experience the countryside on their rides. He said: “I can lead rides which follow very popular routes out towards the Kent countryside. I know the area well and can factor climbs and detours in.”
The rides will be around 30 to 50 miles. He added he would also provide the option of hill training around Crystal Palace or heading to the Herne Hill Velodrome during the summer months.
The first ride meets at 9.45am this Saturday, January 17 and will be going at a “relatively easy going pace – around the 11 – 14mph mark.”
