Group Rides
We hold a weekly club run on Saturday morning, every week of the year, weather permitting. In the Winter and Spring, we also run a longer Sunday club run.
If you're thinking about joining Andover Wheelers, then the Saturday Social Rides are a great place to start. Sunday's club runs are more demanding both physically and technically, and are a great option to further develop your cycling once you feel comfortable with Saturday's social rides.
You don't need to be a member to ride either Saturday or Sunday's group rides, but once you've been a few times, we really hope you'll be motivated to sign up and become a member. At around £1 per month for membership (or less if you're very young or very old!) it's great value for money, and you can be the newest part of a great club with a long history.
Saturday's social rides depart at 9:30am from the rear car park of Andover Premier Inn and usually last about 2.5 hours. We aim to run three groups with group speeds ranging from 12 to 18mph. There's almost always a coffee stop at the end of the ride.
Sunday's club runs occur from the end of October through to mid-March. They range from 45 to 100 miles in length, with at least one coffee stop along the way. They're a great way to build your endurance and explore the best routes around Andover.
