Join the famous Hotchillee Gain Train! A hare and hounds style ride with 3 carriages to choose from - First Class, Second Class and Buffet Car!
What is it?
Firstly, IT’S NOT A RACE but that doesn’t mean it’s an easy pace no-drop ride. It’s a paced “Category +” Hare and Hounds where you will be working predominately at the upper end of your category and hanging on for as long as you can in search of those gains.
What are the paces?
Paces are based on what the Ride Leader for each group will average and our leaders are pretty accurate - check on ZwiftPower afterwards.
Buffet Class (D+) Leader will average 2.4 w/kg (departs at 1830)
Second Class (C+) Leader average 3.1 w/kg (departs at 1834)
First Class (B+) Leader will average 3.7 w/kg (departs at 1836)

Glen is usually behind the scenes making sure that the Hotchillee Ride Captains and event participants have fully functioning bicycles to ride but he occasionally makes an appearance in front of the camera to share his wisdom. If he’s not fixing or building bikes he’ll be out riding in #SweetSussex. If you want to know anything about Cyclocross, Glen is the man to ask.
