Weekly Club Rides

We run 3 weekly bike rides from 5-30 miles to suit all abilities on Wednesdays, Fridays, and Sundays, meeting at the Big Local Bungalow on Derwentwater Road, NE8 2HQ from 9:30am to leave at 10am. Parking is available at the Teams Social Club next door free of charge. Our ride leader will pick a route on the morning of the ride, based on the abilities and preferences of the group. We often split the group to accommodate less experienced cyclists so please don't hesitate to speak up if you think the distance is beyond you. We're happy cycling 5 or 55 miles!

Most of our rides take place on traffic free cycle paths and very quiet roads and include plenty of stops to check out the views and have a cuppa! Almost any bike will be fine on our regular weekly rides, though you might struggle on very narrow road tyres or slicks.

We ride at a relaxed pace, around 7-12mph, and avoid hilly routes, with the emphasis on socialising and getting out. You can expect at least one break at a coffee shop or pub along the way.

We always advise all of your riders to wear helmets.

We especially welcome newbies!
