MERRY CHRISTMAS FROM WEST LONDON CYCLING WHERE MEMBERSHIP IS FREE SO, UNFORTUNATELY, YOU CAN’T GIVE A SUBSCRIPTION AS A GIFT TO A LOVED ONE!
But you could get them a nice warm bit of cycling kit to help them enjoy our series of 8 Festive Rides, all free to join in (scroll down for routes).
We meet at HILLINGDON STATION (UB10 9NR) which has turned out to be a brilliant start point for our rides …. you can arrive by road or train, easy access in and out by bike on a safe junction, shelter if it is raining whilst you wait for the other riders and a pub with a beer garden for summer finishes!
Thanks to all of our members who have helped make this a great year, some great events over the summer and then the brilliant revamp which has given the club added vibe. We are really looking forward to 2026. Our Peak District trip is Sold Out but we still have spaces for our PYRENEES TRIP
WEST LONDON CYCLING FREE RIDES ARE OPEN TO WEST LONDON CYCLING MEMBERS (SUBSCRIBERS). BOTH MEMBERSHIP AND THE SUNDAY RIDES ARE FREE OF CHARGE.
As well as our Christmas Specials, we meet EVERY SUNDAY 9am starting at Hillingdon Station (Hillingdon Circus / Master Brewer / A40 / Long Lane / UB10 9NR)
We split into different speed groups on the road, depending on how many people are riding, so it’s flexible and tailored to riders’ needs. The slowest group will generally wait for the slowest rider (or split into sub groups) but you should be able to manage 30kph on flat stretches with an average speed of around 22kph over the distance. Faster groups will be more speedy of course.
GROUP RIDING: If you are new to club riding, West London Cycling is a great club to get into it with. Before you start, why not learn a few of cycling’s protocols and etiquettes? It’ll help you slot in and feel at home from the get-go!
