Description
Wolverhampton Bicycle Users Group is friendly, fun and open to cyclists of all abilities, experience and ages (if you are under 18 you must bring a parent or guardian to ride with you).
It is a networking group, linking cyclists with cyclists, promoting cycling for leisure and health. From the new or returning cyclist to the hardened cycle tourist with many miles under your tyres we hope to have a ride and companions for you. The emphasis is enjoyment and encouragement.
We welcome all, cycle campers able to devote a couple of days and a lot of energy, parents snatching an hour of 'me time' between school runs, families with tag-alongs and tandems, individuals looking for ride companions for conversation and confidence.
Losing weight, finding friends, saving the planet, tempted by the National Cycle Network signs round the city, with rides starting at under 8 miles but also extending onwards and upwards to individual limits there really is no excuse not to give us a try. No-one is left behind. Another rider will usually join you if you choose to walk up a steep hill. We do freewheel - a lot!
As a real incentive why not sign up for our Shropshire Challenge to Wenlock Edge and back the next day?
Initial membership is limited to 2 months during which time you must take part in 2 group rides. If you have participated responsibly and respectfully of other riders you will be invited to become a full member. There is a small membership fee. Wolves BUG takes it's aim of being a safe, encouraging and friendly community very seriously. Children are welcome but must be accompanied by an adult and remain the responsibility of that adult at all times.
When registering you must include your full real name and the district of Wolverhampton in which you live eg Fred Bassett Pendeford or Mary Jones WV3, in your public profile visible to other members.
