Membership is drawn from both sides of the border, we currently have a good mixture of ages from junior to veterans, both male and female. Club Time Trials are held on quiet roads in Berwickshire and are ideal for safely introducing young riders to the sport. For those who like hills, there are plenty of short, stiff, climbs to be tackled in the nearby Lammermuirs and Cheviots hills.
Social rides within the club are generally organised via e-mail or the forum and can change from week to week, these rides are an important part of life in the club. They are organised, steady paced, and cover a distance between 30 & 50 miles (2 to 3 hours cycling time), depending on the group and weather conditions. They take place on Saturday and Sunday mornings in the winter months and usually Tuesday evening in the summer. All club time trials events are held on Thursday evenings at 7pm.
