How to Enjoy Cycling More



On this page our members pass on their experience and advice about how to get the most out of cycling in Leeds.

But there are only three basic requirements for enjoyable cycling:

  1. Access to a bike
  2. A bike that works well
  3. A comfortable riding position

Everything else is 'detail'.

Leeds Community Cycling Club aims to help its members with both the basics and the 'details', like dealing with costs, wind, rain, terrain, track type, bike type, personal fitness, etc., etc.

So, if you want to learn how to ride a bike for the first time, we'll teach you.

If you don't own a bike, we'll help you get one that works well and is comfortable.

If you need to borrow a bike to join one of our rides, we'll provide and fettle one for you.

If you own a bike, but it's uncomfortable or performing poorly, we'll help you 'make it better'.

And so on ...
