I've recently moved to Sutton Bonington. Could someone tell me which clubs use this route on their rides, I've seen a few coming throuhg, but not sure if it is a regular route?

It appears there aren't any clubs in Loughborough that are not run by/for the students. Am I missing something?

Thanks

Yes. There's a ride from Loughborough Uni on Saturday mornings (9 o'clock at the fountain in front of the Union) including mostly Fontana CC riders - i.e. locals and maybe a few students if they can be Evil or Very Mad to get up . We quite often go out through Sutton Bonnington. 3 to 4 hours including a cafe stop.

Velo Club Long Eaton ride through there on their Sunday Club rides sometimes, club members from Shepshed and Kegworth ride through Sutton B all the time.
The club 10 mile Time trials start in April just a couple of miles away at the layby near the Star pub West Leake.

We'll be riding past this Sunday, see the club website or this website for the route.

Beeston CC and Beeston RC pass through all the time as well, Marle Pit Hill up over the railway from the village to the campus is a classic 'sprint to the top' climb, for fat blokes anyway.

The W. Bridgford crew go through there fairly regularly.
