VC Venta Go-Ride 2026 Programme
VC Venta's Go-Ride coaching is running again at IBM Hursley in 2026. This is an excellent location for cycling activities offering lots of space and a safe environment for our young riders. We're incredibly grateful to IBM for their continued support in providing this venue.
Timing: Sessions run Sundays 4pm-5pm. (Note the later start time than last year.)
Groups: We are continuing to run three groups for the start of 2026 series. Groups 1 and 2 focus on building solid bike handling skills and introducing group riding concepts. Group 3 focuses on improving group riding and racing skills.
To ensure we remain welcome guests at IBM Hursley and are able to continue using the site for Go-Ride coaching, you will be required to accept both IBM Hursley Access Terms and our Go-Ride Declaration when making a booking.
