Spokes - London Cycling are a Cycling UK affiliated group.  We are based in Beckenham & Selsdon, South Croydon, but our rides usually start at Beckenham Green, diagonally opposite Beckenham Junction train station, or in Greenwich, by the foot tunnel opposite the Cutty Sark.  We arrange two types of rides:  a "Fitness Ride", which can be between 30-80 miles, with lots of hills on the shorter routes, and less climbing, flatter, but faster average speeds, on the longer routes.  The second type is a social ride, which can be between 10-30 miles, fewer hills, and ridden at a steady, social pace.  These rides usually take place at weekends, and start between 9-11am.  Our members come from varied backgrounds, and different areas of South-East Greater London, ride all kinds of bicycles, and are friendly & welcoming to new riders.  We do encourage having at least 3rd party cycling insurance, which we can arrange at a discounted rate through Cycling UK.  We hope to see you on one of our rides soon.
