Classic Windsor to Windsor Ride

Dear Cycling Club Members,

This Saturday 15th September the LBS CC are planning to hold a classic Windsor-to-Windsor return ride.

The (hopefully) moderately sunny route will be approximately 120km in total (with a 60km one-way option for those who would prefer to return on the train). The main aim is to have fun and enjoy a cinnamon bun in Windsor, as well as a chance to connect with current students and alumni through our mutual love of two wheels.

For those that wish to return by train, there are trains every 30 mins from Windsor & Eton Riverside to Waterloo that go direct in 56 mins at 23 and 53 past the hour (£10.40 single).

Alternatively, you can get the train from Windsor & Eton Central to Paddington (changing at Slough), which go at 19 and 59 past the hour, taking 30-40 mins (£10.40 single).
