Introduction to Group Riding

What? Cambridge Cycling Club is keen to broaden its reach and offer opportunities for people to get involved and share our love of cycling. We are delighted to offer a series of four introductory group rides this summer on the second Saturday of each month.

When? Second Saturday of the month from May to August (May 11^th , June 8^th , July 13^th and August 10^th) Start time 10am from Cambridge Central Station Plaza.

Where? Cambridge Central Station Plaza.  

Who? These rides are aimed at those who are confident riding a road bike and have a good level of general fitness but probably haven’t ridden in a group or organised club setting before. Anyone and everyone is welcome irrespective of age as long as they are over 18 (or over 16 if accompanied by a parent/guardian).

Length and speed Rides will be between 20 and 25 miles with an optional café stop on route. Speed will be 12-15 mph. Group sizes will be up to 10 and there will be multiple groups if required. Nobody will be left behind. We have four routes planned depending on the wind direction: -

North towards Cottenham and Oakington Garden Centre

South towards Fowlmere and Cafe Amigo

East towards Bottisham and Anglesey Abbey

West towards Bourn and The Stove Cafe

What to wear – if you have cycle specific clothing then that is great, however this is not mandatory.

What you will need - cash/card for the café. A couple of spare inner tubes, tyre levers and a pump. A mobile just in case of a mechanical that we can't fix.
