TechRIDE: A healthier type of networking!

TechRide : Cycling and talking tech

With this being the week that the Tour of Britain is taking place, and Bristol about to become the European City of Sport, we thought it is about time for us techies, tech-curious, founders and entrepreneurs to get involved, get on the saddle and talk tech!

The ride will be pretty flat and on cycle paths - so no need to be an athlete!

Meet at the Mud Dock cafe (http://www.mud-dock.co.uk/) at 8.30 am, the route will change each month, but expect the ride to take around 2 hours with an extra 30m for a coffee break at the far point.

The first ride will be led by Rich Keith of Yogscast fame, an avid techie, original TechSPARK member and super keen cyclist.

While you don't need to be an Olympian to join in, the course will be mostly flat and on cycle paths, you will obviously need to have some level fitness to enjoy it.

You will need to bring your own bike and helmet, (alternatively you can hire a Brompton (https://www.bromptonbikehire.com/docks/2623-bristol-temple-meads) from Bristol Temple Meads) and there is the possibility of using showers afterwards at the MudDock for those who don’t have that option at work - just let us know in advance so we know numbers.

To join in the fun please also sign up to the TechRide Strava group (https://www.strava.com/clubs/208220)
