Cycling UK Wantage

Important announcement:

August sees the return of a limited series of rides for members to enjoy socially distanced group riding. There will be a selection of Tuesday evening 2*, 3* and off road rides plus a led ride and meet up ride on Thursday. Weekend rides for 2* and 3* also return with one ride on Saturday and another on Sunday - 2* and 3* rides will alternate days. Details of all rides and how to book your place can be found in the club calendar. We have drawn up a protocol to limit the risks associated with group riding. The main points are listed below:

• All rides need to be pre-booked on a weekly basis. Details of when bookings open for each ride can be found in the calendar. A reserve list will be maintained. Please don't turn up for a ride in the hope of being accepted.
• Rides are strictly limited to six riders including the ride leader.
• Riders must maintain social distancing during rides and at stops. Leave a 'wheel's gap' between riders and/or cycle two abreast when road conditions allow.
• Riders must be self reliant in terms of mechanicals (punctures, brakes, gears etc.) and water and snacks in the case of longer rides.
• If you are feeling unwell or displaying any covid linked symptoms do not ride and put others at risk.

We are a friendly group offering rides for all types of recreational rider predominantly on the roads and occasionally along the local by-ways and bridleways. We cater for beginners, families and more experienced riders – in fact anyone who enjoys a bit of fresh air and exercise on two wheels.
