Do you have to have a road bike to join?
We do ask that all members ride a road bike as standard, yes.
How do I join BCC?
Please come for a trial ride – we’d love to see you on a Saturday morning ride. You get the chance to meet other members and we can assess which group you would be most suitable in (there are 5+ groups).

If you are thinking of coming on a trial ride and the weather conditions are forecast to be very bad (below freezing temperature, high winds or very heavy rain) please check our public Facebook page here or email our rider coordinator here as there are occasional changes made to the ride time or cancellations.
