Join Our Friendly Group Cycle Rides in London

​

Whether you are looking to explore quiet country lanes, build your fitness, or simply enjoy a weekend spin with great company, London Clarion Cycle Club hosts regular group rides for a variety of abilities. We are proudly inclusive, strictly "no-drop," and always prioritize the social side of cycling.

From scenic routes out to the Surrey Hills and the Essex countryside, to relaxed urban loops, our rides are the perfect way to explore beyond the city limits.

​

What to Expect on a Clarion Ride

• No-Drop Policy: We leave together and we finish together. If you get a puncture or need to take a hill at your own pace, the group will wait.

• Pace and Distance: We clearly label all our rides by distance and expected average speed on our calendar, so you can choose the ride that perfectly matches your comfort zone.

• The Golden Rule — Cafe Stops: A Clarion ride is not a race; it’s a social event. Almost every ride we organize includes a planned stop for coffee, cake, and a chat.

• Led by Experienced Riders: Our routes are planned and led by experienced club members who know the safest, most enjoyable roads in and around London.
