WHY JOIN A CYCLING CLUB?

All ages and abilities
Whether you're an on or off-roader, there's a club for you, and you'll be able to ride at a speed which suits. Beginners are always welcome (you can try it out first too), and many clubs have a dedicated junior section.

How to ride in a group

Discover new routes
You're tapping into a wealth of experience and knowledge of the best local routes - and cafe stops! If you are new to the area, it's a fantastic way to get a real feel for it.

The social aspect
Riding in a group is much easier (drafting saves up to 40% of your energy!) and it's more fun. There'll be time to chat and make new friends - and it's a great way to keep motivated.

Getting kitted out
You'll soon discover what's essential (mud guards in winter) and what's not (an expensive bike). Bike shops usually give discounts to local club members too. And you'll feel like a pro when you proudly ride in your club kit.

Keep progressing
You can do as much or as little as you want, with chances to represent the club at races and time trials.

Added benefits
Many clubs will be affiliated to governing body British Cycling or Cycling UK (formerly CTC), both of which provide extra advantages.
