Our Club Promoted Events
Most of our events take place between March and October. Club runs continue throughout the year (see the club runs calendars). In the winter months, we have training sessions focussing on fitness and skills. We also run educational events, including first aid, road safety training, bike maintenance for members, and social events.
The first Club-organised events are usually Early Spring Time Trials, Spring Crits in the Park (CycloPark, Gravesend) and the first Club Audax of the year, The Man of Kent (from The Mission Hall, Golden Green) at the end of March (or early April). The first free Try-Out ride is planned for the last Sunday of March (from Marden Library Car Park). We are looking forward to the Club Lake Annecy trip in June, with planning already underway for the 2025 trip.
As soon as we have the dates for these events, we will list them on this page.
