Club History
We are a group of cyclists from all over the UK (but a large contingent are based in Cardiff) who enjoy cycling and socialising. Our group has been together in various forms for over 20 years. It evolved from a group of people who rode together to raise money for the NSPCC charity. We organise between us, day, weekend, week and venture rides. The week and venture rides are held in a mix of locations, both UK and Europe. The main aim of the club is to have fun and make new friends whilst seeing new places on two wheels!
