Max Velo hosted an endurance group ride with Track Cycling SA club on Saturday 7 Nov from Devonbosch on the Bottelary road, Western Cape.
A strong contingent of masters athletes joined our youth squad for the 78 km route.
The goal was simple: keep a solid tempo, ride as a bunch, and get everyone to the finish together through good pacing and communication. We did exactly that. The group stayed together the whole way and finished the distance as a unit. Big credit to everyone who showed up and rode smart. Squeezy nutrition kept the legs turning over nicely too.
Our next group ride is on 28 November and in Paarl.
