road Rides

Regular road rides are an important part of Boxford Bike Club. Our annual Sportive, The Tornado, involves two road rides around our beautiful county. Alongside our regular weekly ride rota we also have members who enjoy taking part in Sportives organised by other clubs including The Gayford Flyer, The Kentish KIller and the Hell of the Ashdown. We also organise regular training sessions at the Northern Gateway Cycle Track in Colchester and have recently joined forces with Tri Sudbury who offer a weekly Saturday Ride
