Kent Velo Girls is an all girls' cycling club set up in June 2008 to encourage women to take part in and enjoy road cycling. Our 150 members take part in regular rides for training, and have taken part in Time trials,50 and 100 mile rides, and other Sportives many for the first time, many have done rides to Paris, and other charity rides, and numerous cyclo-sportive events around the UK. We have had a Club Tour to Paris in May, 2011, and 4 days up the French coast in 2012. In 2013 we are planning a 3 day trip through 4 countries in May and a 4 day trip to the Alps in June. We have a programme of Road Rides to suit all women, from an easy ride (any bike is acceptable on this ride) on Monday afternoon, to a Faster Friday morning and Sunday Road Ride, with Time Trials, Hill Climbs and a Training Camp for more serious riders. We are currently developing a racing team too. We enjoy a week of training in the Kent and Sussex sunshine for the annual "stay at home"  Training Camp, now in its' 7th year. There are many more rides on offer, every day, every week, for all levels of cyclist, looking to improve and develop and have some fun - see calendar page for details. Newcomers, of any experience level are always welcome to join. Please Contact us before coming, and we can advise you when the next induction course is.   Our next induction courses will be shown under the joining tab, ladies who are  very rusty or who lack confidence are still welcome to come along, on any bike, there will be a short "build yourself up to 20 miles gently" course run each half term. See more info on joining and the different rides available on the Joining tab.

The intention of our girls road riding club is to ride regularly with a like-minded group of people, have fun, get fit or fitter and become more proficient on a road bike in one of the loveliest counties in England.

The policy of the club is that we ride at the speed of the slowest rider: We try to offer something for everyone, so that everyone, whatever their ability or experience can get some riding in, and develop and improve their cycling every week. NO-ONE WILL BE LEFT BEHIND! For more information please see our website www.kentvelogirls.co.uk or email [email protected]
