Cycling for pleasure

Keep an eye on the events page for details of local public rides.

Derby CTC organises rides every Sunday and has a social meet every Tuesday. Have a look at the programme - some are quite gentle.

The Derby Mercury Road Club isn't just for Tour de France types, although they do cater for a sportier type of rider. They have 60 mile plus clubruns (shorter in winter) starting at 9:30 on Sundays and some off-road rides too.

Tandems are a jolly good way of riding en famille or with friends who have disabilities. The local Tandem club people can be contacted via their website.
