About our Club Rides
Club100 offers friendly group rides every weekend for road and mountain biking. No matter what pace you ride, you will find a ride that will suit you.
Why should you come on a club ride?
It is the best way to progress your cycling. You will learn how to ride safely and efficiently in a group and it is far easier to head out for a training ride knowing you’ll be with a group of friends and have experienced marshals and vehicle support rather than cycling on your own.

“The best rides are the ones where you bite off much more than you can chew, and live through it” – Doug Bradbury
