We have moved... New Website

We have set up a new site at www.hitchinnomads.cc - the new site is based on the WordPress technology and will allow us to post more information and manage more of the club's activities online.

The blogsite has been a fantastic asset for the club and we hope to replicate its success in the new technical environment. We have also registered the "cc" domain name.

Many thanks to Steve Austin for driving the new development forward.

Club Runs - December 2013

Club runs, leave at 0900h Market Square, Hitchin unless stated otherwise. n.b. the first 6 club runs of 2014 commence at 0930h.


8 December
Welwyn Sports Centre

38 miles on-road
Off-road ride option 
A slight variation on the "Nomads (Hitchin) Cycling Club Rough Riders Scratch and Team Race" from 28th February 1937. Look for the "2013 Edition" in the Off-road section of the Route Library, which is found at our web site. A GPX file is there and the link below takes you straight to the map. Meet on the Market Square with the roadies for 0900 as usual. Course is 24 miles and does not include a cafe stop, so bring a picnic in your jersey pocket. Our friends the Windmillers have been invited to join the Nomads on this occasion. 

This is a social ride, not a race or training session, so no one gets dropped
