Our Mental Health Bike Rides
Our monthly mental health bike rides are a way for Trinc to continue it's vision of being a positive voice in mental health and depression. The concept is more about simply getting out and exercising as a positive in helping with mental health and depression.
It is not about raising awareness as it is more about the ride itself being a well being ride and a positive step towards combating mental health and depression. It has been clinically proven that exercise helps so lets get out there, rides some bikes with good people and hopefully feel better.
The plan is to have a mixture of rides to cater to a broad range of cyclist and essentially be inclusive. Each month we will cycle through (excuse the pun) a different ride.
Easy flat road ride - about 1 hour - 1hour 30 plus a coffee stop
Off road for gravel, MTB and if suitable E bikes. About 1hour 30 finishing with a coffee stop.
Hard hill ride for the more experienced rider 2 - 3 hours
Our Mental health rides are currently on hold
Due to lack of numbers our monthly mental health ride is currently on hold
I am working on a plan on how to promote the rides and what changes I need to make to ensure that the format works.
so please be patient.
Kind regards
John
Things to consider:
A spare tube.
Your ability to do the ride.
The appropriate clothing as plan is to ride regardless of the weather.
Septembers Route
The map is essentially this months route.
Starting in Cust and heading over Summer hill to German Road and then onto Oxford. From there is is slightly downhill all the way back to Poyntzs Road via South Eyre Road.
This months ride is more focused on triathletes but all are welcome .
The concept with these rides is to mix up the locations, routes and the type of riding just to make it fun.
Meet point will be Cust - look for the white car with the Trinc flag
Meet 8:15am and Roll out is 8:30am.
Ride will take approximately 1hour 20 minutes.
