Listed is the provisional diary for the 2026 rides. The provisional dates are based on what was run in 2025, but please don't let that put you off, if you would prefer a different day of the week or date just let us know and I am sure that we can accommodate it. Please take a look and let a committee member know if you would like to lead a ride in 2026.

In 2025 we probably had the largest number of rides ever and our thanks go out to all the ride leaders and tailenders that made it so successful.

A ride doesn't need to be a massive "Iron butt" type run either - we need a mix of longish and shortish rides, and don't forget that you can claim twenty quid towards petrol money for checking out and planning the route. All you need is a coffee stop, a lunch stop (with afternoon tea if its a full days ride) joined together by nice roads.

If you are a little nervous feel free to chat to any other committee member, or even a previous ride leader to understand exactly what is involved. It really can be a lot of fun and, if needed, I am sure we can pair you up with an experienced ride leader to help out with your planning.

Sometimes events have to be unavoidably rearranged. Event pages will be updated if circumstances change. Please check prior to attending any event.

PLEASE NOTE THAT FOR ALL FUTURE RIDES THE RIDE LEADER WILL NEED TO SEE YOUR CURRENT MEMBERSHIP CARD - IF YOU ARE UNABLE TO SHOW THIS THEN REGRETFULLY YOU WILL BE UNABLE TO PARTICIPATE IN THE RIDE - THE ONLY EXCEPTION WILL BE FOR GUESTS WHO WILL BE PERMITTED TWO RIDES ONLY TO HELP DECIDE WHETHER OR NOT TO JOIN
