Reason #1 – KNOWLEDGE
The accumulated years of know-how and expertise within any given cycling club can be huge.
From clothing to bikes, to skills like using clipless pedals for the first time and riding through-and-off, speak to your new clubmates and they’ll likely be able to help you ride better and learn as you go.
What’s more, if your mechanical skills are nearer to ‘panic at a flat tyre’ than ‘fix anything with ease’, there’ll always be someone on hand to help. Once you’ve been riding with the club for a bit longer you’ll soon pick up the basics and become more self-sufficient, as you learn from those around you.

Reason #2 – MOTIVATION
How often have you been sitting on the couch knowing you should be getting out on the bike? Calling a riding buddy is the perfect catalysyst. A gret ride and a stop on the way home for a beverage, YES, I’m IN !!
I cant tell you how many time this has happend to me or my ride partner of teh day say “thanks, i needed that, thanks for the call and getting me on teh bike”
Reason #3 – GET INTO RACING
Once you’ve improved your general riding and training, the next step for many club riders is to get into racing.
This can be an intimidating prospect, but glean as much advice as you can from experienced racers and you’ll already be one step ahead on the start line.

What’s more, riding in a paceline or leading out a teammate to victory can be just as satisfying as winning for yourself, especially if the parcours you’re racing on doesn’t suit you anyway.
