We are a community-based project funded by Spirit of 2012 and the Big Bike Revival, operating as part of the Drumchapel Sports Hub.
We aim to make cycling accessible and available for all ages and abilities by providing free bike hire, cycling skills sessions and led rides for families and community groups, to support a healthy, active lifestyle.
We are committed to the development and training of local volunteers, and will liaise with local organisations, services and health professionals in order to promote cycling throughout the community for the benefit of all.
We have a number of weekly group cycling activities that are available for anyone to join and we will also have monthly longer rides for those who want to get out for the day. We have something to suit all ages and abilities. These activities are led and supported by experienced, trained cycle leaders.
Ladies Cycling Group - Every Monday evening from 5.45pm - suitable for Ladies of all ages and abilities.
Adult Cycling - Every Tuesday morning from 10.30am - an easy, gentle accompanied ride for any adults who would like to get out on their bike, especially suitable for older people or those with health considerations. Rides may be 3-5 miles, depending on ability.
