Club Reliability Trials

In the past these events were used to test the riders fitness at the later part of the winter prior to the forthcoming racing season.Nowadays these events are not races but often just a slight level up from your normal club ride. Often the riders are set off in groups according to time selected but they do not have to stick with the group

The idea is to complete the distance in a set time, there is a choice of time standards available. By choosing a set time you can make the ride as leisurely or as challenging a you wish.

Horsham cycling normally have two destinations, a longish ride of about 60 miles and a shorter one of around 30 miles.

The shorter distance is aimed at the Social Riders who can still make it an easy or challenging ride. There is also a certificate for riders who complete the distance within their set time. (+/- 10minutes)

The social group in particular enjoy these events that have become very popular.
