The Kibworth Easy Riders Road Cycling Club is a group located in Kibworth Beauchamp, Leicestershire, that was formed in 2020 during the early stages of lockdown. The club's primary goal is to cater to cyclists of all abilities and revive the spirit of old-fashioned cycling days out. Each ride organised by the club is designed to be an adventure, with no set routes, no set distance, and no time limits.
Since its formation, the club has grown significantly and now boasts a membership of over 50 fully paid-up members. It is also affiliated with British Cycling. The members of Kibworth Easy Riders can be found cycling across the county on most days of the week. In addition to regular rides, the club organises special events such as 100-mile rides in a day and weekend trips for the more adventurous cyclists.
The club also hosts the renowned “Lemon Drizzle Run” to Birmingham.
The diverse range of cycling experiences offered by the club is extensive. Members have completed notable routes such as the Whitehaven to Tynemouth Coast to Coast, Devon Coast to Coast, Scottish Coast to Coast, and the infamous NC500. They have also visited places like the Isle of Arran, Isle of Skye, and the New Forest. Furthermore, the club has circumnavigated the Isle of Wight.
With an age range spanning from 15 to 79 years, Kibworth Easy Riders prides itself on its diverse and inclusive membership. The members share a deep passion for cycling and have formed strong friendships through their shared love of the sport.
