Tandem Club GPX/TCX Rides list

As a club we have many organised rides including national and international large events as well as local regional group rides. Quite a few of these have been made available to members using route sheets and more recently GPX/TCX files for sat navs. This is a database of all of these rides allowing you to view and download GPX/TCX files and route sheets where available.

We are slowly adding all of our rides to this database. If any member is willing to help that would be great ! These rides are provided on an as is basis if you ride them you do so entirely at your own risk. The Club, its officers and ride organisers accept no responsibility for loss, damage to property, accident, injury or death, that may occur, however caused, whether by negligence, deliberate act or otherwise. Any RO/member can add rides to make it easy for members to access them.

You can add rides using the Add Ride link. You must have a website login account to do this.By default the Selection criteria will be for rides in your own group. Set this to "All" to list all rides and click on the "Search" button. Some assistance with using this system is at: Help. You can just view and add places of interest using PlaceList. Note that when you have added a ride you can view it with a background map and proceed to add places of interest. This system is still a work in progress. Please feedback issues/ideas to: webgroup@tandem-club.org.uk.

We have just added all of the BCQ's to the system. See BCQ's

Starting in Eynsham, west of Oxford and Blenheim Palace. There is a free public car park a short way from the town centre where there are cafes for a pre-ride carb boost.

Take care crossing the A340 here. Next leg takes you past the Vyne National Trust. ...

Starts at the Greenham Control Tower: The upper floors are usually open with a permanent exhibition and access to the control room with views over the common and to the hills beyond. Well worth spending a little time here, especially if you don't know the significance of Greenham Common when it was ...

A 34 mile ride from Waterperry Gardens heading east towards Princes Risborough by way of the Pheonix Trail, but turning south before reaching the town, bypassing Watlington then returning via Great Milton.

Ride starts and finishes at Sainsbury's in Tadley. Not a particularly long ride at around 23 miles but there are a few climbs. Hannington is the highest point of the ride and there's a pub (The Vine) or the village green to stop and take a break. One shortish climb after Hannington up Plantation Hil ...

25 miles with some hills but all within a 200 foot range. Start at Starbucks Cafe in Sainsburys. Coffee shops and pubs in Kingsclere. Mostly quiet country lanes but two short stretches on the busy A339 - take care joining/crossing. Ignore the short spur from Sainsburys.

This is a route I divised to take in a couple of British Cycle Quest (BCQ) checkpoints. As it was during the CV19 pandemic of 2020/21 we did not stop at any cafes or pubs etc. but there are plenty to choose from in both Glastonbury and Wells. The 'spur' after Wells is where we headed for the BCQ, bu ...
