Hello,
Hope your relo has gone smoothly so far. I'm heading to Basel from the US with my wife's relo. If you're still not riding fast I'm up for some riding, we'll be there in about 3 weeks. The cycling looks incredible in that area, I'm really looking forward to it. I appreciate any helpful tips, routes, etc...
Carlos
Hi Carlos,

I've just sent you a PM with my contact details, so fell free to call or email when you arrive. There's a few of us that have done some rides SW of Therwil over the past month, easy-moderate pace, and you're right - the area is fantastic for cycling.

Brett.

Re: Road cycling Basel area

Hi,

Just moved to Basel and looking to do some longer rides 50-100km if any of the previous posters are still about. Either weeknights or weekends. Also does anyone know of any time trials going on that are open or where they can be found?

Re: Road cycling Basel area

I am not aware that there are many time trials in the Switzerland, there are alot cycling races (sportives) especially in France near you..but personally not aware of regular time trial events here (as would be common in the UK).

Re: Road cycling Basel area

Hi,

I've been living in Basel for almost a year now and am looking for people to cycle with. I use to race IM triathlon before I blew my knee snowboarding. So for the moment just concentrating on cycling. I am a fairly keen cyclist riding in all weather. Looking for people to do some short (30-50km) weekday rides (morning or evening) and some longer rides on the weekend.

Get in touch if you are interested

Re: Road cycling Basel area

Hi,

I noticed tht you are also recovering from the injury. I am also interested in short weekday rides (30-50km). Weekends are also an option.
This Sunday and the next one I am starting again and doing the short ride. Let me know, if you are interested: cdrw1201@gmail.com

Re: Road cycling Basel area

Just thought I'd mention this:

Pat, a member of this parish, organizes cycle tours of a more social nature, but we've called a break for winter.

But from the sounds of it, you are looking for something altogether more challenging anyway.

edit: I just saw same posted by mimi1981.

Re: Road cycling Basel area

I live in Kandern (just north of Basel, in Germany) & a friend of mine I work with has asked me to find him a road biking group/club that he can join. He's fast!
Thanks
Lesley
