Hi,

Does anyone know of any chain gangs in the Woking/ Surrey area during the week??

    Perhaps Charlotteville CC may have a regular one?

    Pretty sure Woking CC don't have an offical one, but you could always join, attend a few club rides, make some new riding buddies and then start your own. :-)

    Where are you based?

    I often do a school night 20 mile route in an hour if you fancied joining me.

    Could go slightly quicker, but happy to slow up and potter if you wish too.

    Have been meaning to cycle with Woking CC for ages but often away at weekends.

    I'm based near Woking town centre. Been trying to look for a local club who do weekly training rides for a while now.

    the wheelers (who you are a member of) do the Plateau of Pain at Richmond park for Hill reps and in the winter months we do the training loop around Walton and Weybridge.

    in terms of around Woking I'm not sure of any chaingangs but there are some excellent roads around that way you could develop a training route on ( Pirbright and some areas to the south of Woking have some very fast roads).

    TVS do a full on blast from Pirbright, 9am Saturdays if I recall about 2 hours, 20mph ish. VCGH also do a chain gang from Bel & The Dragon near Churt on a weekday during the summer months (Weds or Thurs I forget).

    At least I thought I had, it's in my outbox for some reason... Anyone know how you send dm's in this forum?

    Yup, VCGH run a chaingang on Thurs eves, a few 20min loops starting from Bel and Dragon in Churt (south west of Godalming) It's a bit quiet just now, with a few on holiday or racing hard. maybe check the VCGH Facebook page a day or so before as they'll often be a note saying what's going on, or DM me and I can then let you know when it's next on.
