South Herts Cyclists

Jeremy, the organiser of South Herts Cyclists, would like to share a few updates with the sports community. South Herts Cyclists is a road cycling and charity sports club in Hatfield, South Hertfordshire. The club, affiliated with Cycling UK, has been promoting sociable cycle rides on quiet lanes since 1878.

The club offers weekly rides on Sundays and Wednesday evenings, with women-only rides on some Saturdays. These non-competitive rides start in St Albans, Hatfield, or Wheathampstead, with convenient access to train stations and parking. Jeremy encourages those in Hertfordshire and North London to join, fostering a diverse community of cyclists.

To give potential members a taste of the club, South Herts Cyclists allows three trial rides before committing to membership. The club also arranges Away Days for extended rides in new locations, accessible by car or train. Safety is a priority, and the club provides a free online cycling first aid course and club-branded mudguard stickers.

For updates, the community can sign up for the club's weekly newsletter or join their Facebook Group. Regular rides on Wednesday evenings continue despite the temporary suspension of Sunday rides due to low attendance and a shortage of volunteer leaders. Jeremy remains optimistic and invites interested individuals to get in touch for more information.

Overall, Jeremy and South Herts Cyclists welcome all levels of cyclists to explore Hertfordshire's beautiful countryside and promote cycling as a fun and accessible mode of transport.
