What we’re about
Our friendly Cycling Club is part of Cycling UK (West Sussex Member Group). Our weekly Tuesday, Thursday and Sunday rides normally start between Shoreham and Littlehampton, and we also occasionally ride from other areas such as Chichester and Brighton & Hove.
Our rides usually start and finish at the same location, to give riders the opportunity of arriving by cycling, car, or train. We ride for an hour or so to a café for a coffee stop and then cycle to lunch, which is normally at a pub - or you can bring your own! The ride then returns to the starting point.
A typical Tuesday ride is around 30-40 miles and is divided into multiple groups cycling between 10 and 12mph according to abilty. These rides are mostly along quiet country lanes and designed for cyclists who are looking for a social ride. Thursday rides are shorter at about 20 miles.
Our Sunday rides are longer at around 50 to 70 miles and are for full club members only.
All types of bikes, including e-bikes, are welcome on our rides so long as they are well maintained and roadworthy. Please bring along normal repair items such as spare inner tubes, tyre levers, and a working pump. In the autumn and winter months please make sure you have good working lights front and back. We don’t insist on hi-viz or a helmet.
We welcome you to come along and try our rides up to three times before you decide whether you would like to join us. Our annual membership is just £6, and you will also need to become a member of Cycling UK for insurance cover. All club rides are free of charge … so why not book on a ride and start your cycling journey with Arun-Adur Cycling Club! Check out our Facebook page too for photographs of our cycling excursions.
