Joyful Bellas and Fellas
About us
We meet regularly at Edgbaston Reservoir, with a few different rides to choose from. We are a relaxed club, running social, enjoyable rides that are suitable for beginners to keen cyclists.
I started Joyful Bellas and Fellas after I learned to cycle as an adult and wanted to cycle more, but most of the cycling clubs looked serious and for people with a lot more experience, and a lot faster than me! I decided to start my own club, and we have been going ever since.

Information about the group rides
We have a relaxed beginner ride every Saturday morning from 11am, where we cycle around Edgbaston Reservoir and have a good chat. We go at the pace of the slowest rider and focus on enjoying ourselves.
For anyone keen to push themselves a bit more, we also have an intermediate ride on Saturdays from 10:30am. These rides are usually between 8-12 miles at moderate speed with short stops if necessary as well as a stop for tea or coffee.
We have bikes and helmets available for people to borrow, so even if you don’t have a bike of your own you can still take part! Please make sure to dress for the weather and wear appropriate footwear (ie, not flip flops or tennis shoes).
