You don’t have to be a member to join a few introductory rides and it doesn’t cost you anything to come along. You will be made welcome and we will be pleased to see you. Newcomers are always welcome, we hope you will continue to ride with us and, if so, you will be expected to join Cycling UK.
If you are unsure of your fitness, or find the thought of cycling daunting, try a short ride first. If in doubt, phone a contact. All rides are led by a person who knows or has researched the area, we ride as a group and no-one is left behind. We try to keep to the lanes and avoid the busier roads as much as possible. Lunch stops are usually at a country pub – bring sandwiches if you prefer. You are welcome to ride with as many groups as you wish.
