About
GS Avanti Cycling Club, based in Orpington, invites all cycling enthusiasts to join their vibrant community. Open to all ages and abilities, the club focuses on creating a supportive and inclusive environment where everyone can enjoy cycling and stay active.
Every weekend, Sam and the team organise club rides through the picturesque countryside around Orpington. These rides are tailored for different skill levels, so there's something for everyone. Interested in joining? Reach out to the membership team for details on upcoming rides.
GS Avanti has moved its communication to Discord, making it easier than ever to stay connected. Whether via browser, desktop, or mobile app, members can now access all club activities and chat with fellow cyclists seamlessly.
Sadly, the Kentish Killer has been on hold since its 10th anniversary due to COVID-19. However, Sam is working with Flamme Rouge Events to bring this much-loved event back. Safety is a priority, and they aim to revive it in the near future.
The club shows its unity and respect in times of national importance, like the passing of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II, by canceling events to honour her memory.
For those who love a challenge, GS Avanti participates in events like the Dunwich Dynamo, an overnight ride from Victoria Park to Dunwich. Members also enjoy sportives like the Wolfe of Westerham and San Fairy Ann Centenary, offering routes for all abilities.
Sam also organises time trials, such as the Cudham Circuit, allowing members to test their speed in a friendly, supportive setting. The club handles all logistics, so members can focus on the ride.
Looking ahead, Sam and GS Avanti are excited for a full season of time trials. It’s the perfect mix of competition and camaraderie.
In summary, GS Avanti Cycling Club in Orpington offers a welcoming space for cyclists of all abilities to connect, explore stunning routes, and share their passion for the sport. Join Sam and the team for an adventure on wheels!
