Racing
Gravesend C.C. offers its members a wide range of racing activities. A racing program is published annually detailing all Club events and those open events that count towards the Club championship
The Club is affiliated to the following organisations;
Cycling Time Trials, Kent Cycling Association and British Cycling
Summer Tuesday Evening Time trials
From April to September, the club runs a series of evening time trials every Tuesday night. These are usually 10 miles long and open to both club members and riders from local clubs. They are friendly events and provide a very good introduction to more competitive side of cycling but many just ride them for training and to meet up with the other members.
We always end up at the Fenn Bell afterwards for a quick drink and chat.
Club Runs
Sunday Club runs start at Cobham War Memorial every Sunday at 9:00am. These runs vary in distance but are usually between 30 & 40 miles.
Sportives
Riders from the club regularly take part in Sportives, both far and wide.
The ones in our “patch” are –
- The Gravesend Reliability Ride – January
- The Castle Ride (Tonbridge) – May
- The Radar rode (From Brands Hatch) – July
- The Cyclosportive (From Seal) – September
Social Events
These vary from year to year but include The Annual Club Dinner and Prize Presentation, visits to major races, quiz nights and socialising with other local clubs.
Club Nights
We meet on the second Monday night of the month, from 8:00pm at the Harden Hall, Hall Road, Northfleet. The hall is large and ideal for training/turbo sessions so feel free to bring your training gear along or just come down for a chat and a cup of tea.
