Regular Rides.

** Club Rides ** 

During these testing times, as a club it goes without saying that we are obviously 100% behind all governments guidelines when it comes to social distancing. As a club we will not be organising any club rides until permission is granted by our government.  Please all stay safe, as a club we know you are all experienced and sensible riders and it wont be long before we are all riding together again.

We have a number of different rides available for suit all abilities that leave from Roefield / Clitheroe Baths Carpark, BB7 3LA at 9am Every Saturday. 
​ If you would like to come along for a ride before joining your more than welcome, just get in touch on here or our facebook page.

Ride Groups

​
​'A'  Run
Not currently running; but if you are looking to do a ride 16 mph+, around 60 miles with cafe stop, then why not post on our Facebook site and find others interested.

'B' "Hillbillies" Run 
A slower but still challenging club ride taking in some hills, 14-15mph, 45 – 50 miles with cafe stop.

'B' Run 
A steadier paced club ride, 12-13mph, 35 – 40 miles with cafe stop.
(This is our most popular, so we may split these into several smaller groups of up to 8 people to enable us to ride safely on the roads)

​
'C' Run 
​A gentle paced ride of around 30 miles with a cafe stop. Pace is on average 10-12mph, the ride leader will make sure no-one is left behind.

Introductory rides 
​
 Ideal for people that are new to cycling and want to find out more about the club.  These are not weekly rides but organised as required.
