*we will review this restriction regularly as we gain experience organising group rides under this new format, and as HM Government guidance changes
DPCC run regular Sunday Club Runs throughout the year in all but the most extreme weather.
Club runs are a great way to start to learn group riding skills, extend your endurance and offer a chance to chat about all things cycling.
Club runs are typically three to four hours and in that time can cover 50-60 miles and include a cafe stop for refuelling (cake!).
The club run schedule and routes are below and rides leave Boundary Park Sports Pavilion (OX11 6EY) at 9 am (BST) and 9.30 am in the winter.
Club runs are open to all with and newcomers are encouraged to join the club after five rides.
