Every Thursday night there is a social ride out from the Jovial Monk pub in St Andrews Ridge. The ride is between 16-20 miles, depending on that week’s ride, but always at a pace to suit all those that attend.
After the ride there’s chip butties on offer for £2 a pop – well you’ll have earned them by that point!
Helmet’s a must. Lights also still required at this time of year, but if you don’t have any drop us an email or message – we’ve normally got a spare set knocking around for the evening.
This is a nice relaxed fun race over 20km round Swinley Forest on the edge of Bracknell. It’s an Enduro race, with 7 timed downhill stages that are timed, but a more relaxed pace transferring between them. Should be great fun for all and a great opportunity for first time racers.
We have a number of club members of all abilities, men and ladies, taking part, so why not come join us?

Weather looks good this week, so come along to Croft and have a cycle with us.
As well as doing a few laps, there is a nice beginners loop we can do from Croft, with only gentle uphill and 3.5 and 7 mile options which we’re happy to do if there’s demand for it.
Davinia will also be there if anyone wants to do Ladies only groups.
Weekend riding in the Lake District, with guided rides and bunkhouse accommodation.
There are 6 places + if we get 6 more, we can make it 12, due to guided rides having to be in blocks of 6 in a group.
The cost is £165 for accommodation, trail guide and parking. We will split transport costs, but all other additional costs are down to each individual.
The full itinerary can be found here – it looks like a truly great weekend.
You can use the button below to pay for the trip – we do need people to pay in advance for this trip.
You will also need to print and complete the below forms and bring them with you on the trip:

After a summer break, Ladies Leisure Rides Returns!
Meeting just outside Waitrose , Witchelstowe at 10.30am, we will take a leisurely ride along the Old Railway cycle path along the bottom of Old Town . There is an option of a short 3 1/2 mile loop or a longer 7 mile loop with a lap of Croft , depending on what everyone would like to do. I’m happy to tailor the ride to suit you ladies!
This is entirely ladies only (excuse my hubby photo-bombing in the pic above , he won’t be making an appearance!) and perfect for beginners.
Really excited to welcome new ladies to my leisure rides , so what’s stopping you !! Come and enjoy a ride with cake and coffee afterwards, along with a good old girlie natter!!
See you there ladies – oh and don’t forget your MyWaitrose card for free coffee!
Come and join us for a fewer evening laps of Croft whilst the evenings are still light enough. Weather forecast is excellent (currently!) too
Meet in the car park at 5.45pm or catching us doing laps after that. Everyone most welcome, nice relaxed atmosphere
Starting at the Three Trees Cafe we will have a lovely ride to Chisledon and then on to Coate Water. There we can have coffee and loo stops before either heading to Croft for a few laps or heading directly back to the Three Trees Cafe.
Leisurely pace, all abilites welcome 🙂
We’re going back to the Forest of Dean, with a twist.
A few people have asked us about bringing their teenagers with them on rides and so we’ve put this together with you mind.
Verderers is rightly the showcase trail at FoD and is perfect for showing a competent rider what a great mountain bike trail has to offer (in a controlled manner!).
So the ride is open to all, including your children – we just ask that you accompany your kids on the ride. Verderers does have some reasonable climbs in it & is 7 miles long, so we would suggest a minimum age of 13, unless your child is particular fit and experienced (although ultimately it’s a public trail and your decision & responsibility).
We will have 2 ride leaders on the day (including our Welfare Officer Davinia), to show what you should do to check your bikes before you set off and show you the trail itself, as well as some of the slightly off route features along the way (such as the great little skills practice areas).
We will meet at the Pedalabikeaway cycle centre in Cannop Valley, which has excellent facilities and a great atmosphere – you’ll need £3.50 for parking for the day.
We will be at Croft Cycle trail tonight for a lap or two, before a beginner friendly loop of the old railway line cycle path round the bottom of Old Town.
Everyone welcome, very suitable for beginners.
