CYCLING CLUB

Bernie sbug.Sportsbug Fortnight

These rides are our response to several queries from cyclists visiting local cycling shops for short rides to help gain confidence and improve fitness.

The go-ride sessions are delivered by our British Cycling trained coaches and away from traffic, so are ideal for children that are already able to ride short distances and want to improve their skills. Older riders are challenged to complete more complex skills will improve their riding skills and get used to riding in small groups. If there's demand, we'll continue these through the summer.

The group rides for adults normally have two leaders from the Club - one to navigate and one to follow the trail to help out anyone struggling or with mechanical issues. We'll regroup every so often to make sure you're all OK.

Please wear a helmet and gloves, and bring a bottle of water. Sun-block is recommended too. For the off-road (MTB) and go-ride activities you'll need a hybrid or mountain bike with good tires and in a road-worthy state. For the social and time-trial rides a road bike is recommended.
