Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

We welcome cyclists of all abilities, from beginners to experienced riders and racers. If you love riding your bike and are looking for a supportive, social cycling club, you'll fit right in with us!

You can join online via our membership sign‑up page in just a few minutes. Once you have joined, you will receive information on how to access our ride calendar, WhatsApp and Spond groups.

For 2026, we offer two main membership options: 1. London Clarion Cycle Club + National Clarion Cycling Club: £20 per year, including third-party liability insurance, valid from 1 January to 31 December (join after 1 September and get the following year included). 2. London Clarion Cycle Club only: £10 per year for riders who already have third-party liability insurance through another organization (valid for 12 months from the date of joining).

Family membership options are available. Family membership is for two adults and any number of children under 18 years old.


For the London‑only option, membership runs for 12 months from your joining date. For the combined London + National Clarion option, membership runs on the calendar‑year basis described above.

After your membership is processed, you will be invited into our WhatsApp and Spond groups and sent information on upcoming rides and events. You can then start booking onto rides that match your experience and fitness level.
