Came across nirvana cycles dorking looking for group rides, there website looks old, do they still do shop rides? IE social rides you dont pay for.

Oh yes ! Their Facebook page is kept much more up to date. The shop is in Wescott by the way.

Great shop, excellent rides. You need to choose carefully, there are some very good riders / rides (speed &fitness, free riding), not for the faint hearted. Frankly I'm not good enough to go along but I enjoy watching the riders who are. Even the Wednesday lunchtime old blokes ride is fairly full on.

@dean - yes as per website, one xc one freeride. The freeride can spend a while sessioning a single trail / feature to get it nailed. Call the shop and join Facebook group and have a look at the videos.

There's a bunch of miserable old sods who ride from there on a Wednesday night at 6.30. I'd avoid them if I were you. Especially me.

Rung them up, looking at their site was worried details would be out of date, they're right.

Apparently the ride setting off at 11 tomorrow is a 4-5 hour xc, from peoples experiences, is it the pace of the slowest or an attempt to push as hard as the crowd allows?

Bit worried about getting destroyed.

Went on a weekend ride with them once, my mates chain snapped. Rather than waiting the two minutes it took for us to fix it, they just rode off...
