2019 is turning out to be a good year for touring rides. There have been more such rides than at this time in any previous year. Also, there is an upward trend of cyclists participating in them. Today’s ride to Horam attracted thirteen Cycle Seahaven members, a record number for a touring ride. It’s good […]
If you’d like to cycle on one of our touring rides but feel they’re a bit too long and/or a bit too quick then you’re in luck! A new type of touring ride is being launched which may appeal to you. Called ‘Easy Touring’, these rides will be shorter and slower than our normal touring […]

The Touring rides clocked up just over 1000 miles in the first quarter of 2019. There were 31 such rides; that’s the most miles and rides for the first three months of a year since the touring rides started many years ago. That’s partly because of the better weather this year (only a few rides […]
Today’s touring rides to the Lavendar Line railway station at Isfield attracted 16 cyclists. Ten joined the ‘classic’ tourers ride led by Dave Sutton and me; six joined the Tourers ‘Plus’ ride led by Dave Tyler which goes slightly faster. This was a record turnout of members for the touring rides and is in-line with […]
