Following the announcements from the Scottish Government on the 9th March 2021, Scottish Cycling and sportscotland have developed updated guidance for Level 4 areas.
Club Activity can recommence, but physical distancing must be in place at all times, and the group size is limited to 9 in group rides.
As before it will be necessary to register before taking part in a ride.
New Start Rides
Do you want to try group riding? Are you considering joining a cycling club?
Dunfermline Cycling Club run a beginners monthly group ride open to non-members. The ride will be guided so riders can relax, learn new skills, build confidence on the road and get to know members of the club. The ride will start with a bike check and some tips on how to ride on the road in a group. This is a social ride so no riders will be left behind and the group will ride at the pace of the slowest rider. You'll be in the company of experienced riders and members who joined the club through this initiative.
