What we’re about
A group created to encourage more people to cycle.
We offer regular, mostly off road rides on cycle tracks or cycle paths, so you will need a mountain or hybrid bike that you can ride on gravel, dirt tracks and/or woodland. Also, cycle helmets must be worn on our rides.
The rides are held mostly in and around the New Forest with occasional rides to Purbeck or Isle of Wight. The rides will usually last for two or three hours with drink/rest stops part way round. I will let riders know the expected distance and duration for each ride, along with a description letting riders know how challenging the ride could be. Currently, almost all Cycle Tracks events are led by riders on pedal power only, so expect a more relaxed pace than some groups and we travel at the speed of the slowest cyclist in any case. We encourage all cyclists, and are happy for you to use E-bikes if that makes the ride more enjoyable for you.
Membership fees are £10- per year, payable on November 1st. Your first 3 rides are free, so that you can decide if Cycle Tracks is for you before you pay. If you join 3 months or more into the membership year, fees are £1- per month or part month remaining until 31st October.
You can pay by cash or cheque on a ride, or by bank transfer as follows.

Thanks. Tim
