Based in and around Galashiels in the beautiful Scottish Borders, we offer a range of rides from easy paced beginners rides to longer more challenging rides for the experienced rider.

Beginners rides will be up to 15 miles in length, at a pace where we can chat and relax. Rides for the experienced rider will be, on average, 40 miles with the occasional challenge of a Century ride.

The longer rides require a higher level of fitness and will be ridden at a faster pace where individuals can challenge themselves.

As a qualified British Road and Mountain Bike Coach I will also run skills sessions.

Rides will generally start from Galashiels but we may use other meeting points from time to time. We will run a mix of road and off road rides with some being a combination of both. The rides will take us through the wonderful Borders roads, using as many of the quiet lanes and cycle paths as possible. For those who have mountain or gravel bikes there will also be the opportunity to ride away from traffic in our scenic Tweed Valley. Rides will be clearly defined for rider and bike suitability at the time of posting.

We will always include a coffee stop. Who wouldn't want cake!!

We will always keep together and arrange meeting points throughout the ride.

We will run a mix of weekend, weekday and evening rides throughout the year. Night time mountain bike rides are really fun and will be on easy forest trails. No technical stuff!!

We look forward to welcoming you to our group. Our aim is to have fun, socialise, develop our skills and maybe challenge ourselves.

Happy cycling :)
