Based in Ludlow, we are surrounded by some of the most beautiful countryside for cycling anywhere in the UK. We have a great mix of local hills, valleys and rivers and just a few miles further on, have easy access to both the Wye valley and out along the border country into Wales. Taking part in our group social rides is a great way to get to know our local countryside, develop your cycling and enjoy a bit of companionship.
Our group social rides include both regular weekly and a number of special events spread across the year. The majority of these use planned routes and are led by an experienced club member which makes them ideal for all those who just want to turn up and enjoy a pleasant, relaxed cycle with friends.
For those who have never cycled in a group before, it can take a bit of time to get used to and requires a reasonable level of both underlying fitness and bike handling skills. We are keen to encourage new people into the club and are happy to provide a bit of help, if necessary, to bridge the gap. This could for example be by pairing people up with a more experienced rider for their first few rides. Alternatively, for those who prefer to first do some rides on their own we are always happy to advise on some great local routes which you might want to try to start with.
