SILVERSTONE FAQS

ARRIVAL & PARKING

Silverstone Circuit, Towcester, Northamptonshire, NN12 8TN

Please arrive between 07:00 to 07:30. Parking is complimentary. You will be greeted by a member of the LeBlanq team who will direct you to registration (best to carry your cycling shoes and keep your regular shoes on for now).

DO I NEED TO BRING MY BIKE?

Yes you will need to bring along your own road bike. We can also offer a test ride on the Specialized Aethos subject to availability.

WILL THERE BE A MECHANIC TO FIX MY BIKE?

Please ensure your bike is fit for riding before you arrive. We suggest a bike service if you’ve not had one for a while. Please check your brakes, gears, and tyres. Should you need your bike repaired during the ride, our mechanics will aim to fix the problem. Any new parts will need to be paid for.

DO I NEED TO WEAR A HELMET?

Yes, always.

DO I NEED TO BRING ANYTHING FOR THE RIDES?

Please remember to bring a helmet, water bottles, a change of clothes, shoes and towel, charged mobile phone. Rear lights are advisable for the more shaded parts of the routes.

RIDING ETIQUETTE

Standard club riding etiquette is encouraged. Loud and proud with your calls, avoid half wheeling and ramping up the pace. Group size will be restricted to ensure we don’t impact on other road users and make your experience the best possible one. For the less confident rider, please let us know if you’re not experienced riding in a group of 8 or do not know the standard calls.  We will help you get to grips with them.

WILL YOU ACCOMMODATE DIETARY REQUIREMENTS?

Yes, of course. All allergies will be catered for, just share the details with our concierge.
