To Join Rainbow Riders, follow the steps below.

Join the club

Becoming a member is very easy, complete your details to join our Spond group and you will be warmly welcomed by one of the friendliest clubs around.

Details of events are shared on Spond. You don’t need to download and use the app, events will be emailed/text to members.

Join a ride

Rides are planned and led by a ride leader so you can just turn up and follow the leader.  Routes are available through the Rainbow Riders’ Strava club.

The rides are social and relaxed and will have water stops and normally a lunch stop on the longer routes.

Socialise

The most important thing about any of our rides is to have a nice time, meet new people and ride with friends.

We are more than a cycle club, we are a community, participate as much or as little as you want.
