Cycling
The Stragglists meet on Sundays at 9:00am outside the Angel Inn which is situated by the war memorial at the junction of Angel Road and Portsmouth Road, Thames Ditton. If you have ever taken part in the Harry Hawkes 8 you'll know that it's on the opposite side to the Thames Ditton cricket clubhouse.The idea of a Sunday ride is for everyone to enjoy the trip. With that in mind we have two groups; both following the same route but the first, easier paced group will leave at 9:00am sharp and the second will leave at about 9:05am.
For more information about the Stragglists and the type of rides that we do, please follow this link.

Triathlon
The Straggtri group is a triathlon community within the Stragglers Running Club committed to offering members triathlon coaching and multi-sport opportunities within a friendly supportive environment.
We have coaching sessions each week. You can decide how hard and how often you want to train and all abilities are catered for. Relay, sprint and Olympic distance races, not forgetting open water lake/river/sea swims, duathlons, aquathons etc. So don't be put off if you're not very good at one of the sports, you'll get lots of encouragement from existing members and don't forget it's never too late to learn.
