ALL ABOUT RUTLAND'S CYCLING CLUB

YOUR LOCAL CYCLING CLUB

Find people to ride with in Rutland. Velo Club Rutland was founded in 2007 to help cyclists meet new people in a friendly atmosphere. The cycling club has around 90 members.

SOCIAL, FITNESS AND TRAINING RIDES

There’s something for about every level of fitness and experience. Anyone can join from mountain bikers to road and touring riders of any age. eBikers are welcome too! Many riders join initially to do the shorter rides (typically the Saturday Cafe Ride) and progress to longer rides as they gain experience.

LOCAL ROADS AND TRACKS

The Club will take you to corners of Rutland you’ve never seen. Our development ride, The Café Ride, is on Saturday mornings. Find more details on the Weekly Rides page.

A COMMUNITY OF CYCLISTS

There’s always an opportunity to get together over a pint or a piece of cake. The social rides explore the rural county & beyond with a friendly bunch and some refreshments along the way.

FOR CYCLISTS OF ALL AGES

Younger or older? All you need is a bike. Those who choose more leisurely riding or are returning from injury could try The Café Ride.
