Southend

Now that the clocks have gone back we request all members protect themselves by having working lights on the front and back of their bikes.

Also with the weather likely to get wetter for the next few months, we ask all members to be considerate to their fellow riders and make sure you have mudguards fitted to your bike. Thanks

COVID Lockdown Photos

The COVID lockdowns have been a unique part of history and cycling was a joy when the roads were virtually empty. Our members have provided a number of photos of their rides during the COVID period when we have only been able to ride as small groups, pairs or individually. Follow this link to see a larger number of photos of this time: Lockdown Photos.
