Survey Says…..

Before I begin let me ask the room a quick question. What is the longest bike ride you have ever gone on in one day?

■ Also – raise your hand if you have ever been on a proper 4+ day cycling holiday?

Survey says…..

200 respondents revealed the following:

■27% only use their bike for getting around, going on errands or commuting to/from work or school

■30% identified themselves as a “true roadie”

■11% identified themselves as a triathlete

■12% hated to ride alone and preferred group comraderie

■31% thought more than 50km riding was enough in one outing

■30% had never ridden on multiple long days (meaning they always took a day off the next day)

■Only 14% considered 100km’s of riding in one day to be the minimum effort required to be worth all the effort
