Welcome to Inverness Cycle Club
We’re a group of friendly and enthusiastic cyclists who welcome all new members, whether seasoned club cyclists or looking to join their first club. Come along and enjoy the wonderful scenery of the Highlands on two wheels with a group of like-minded people.
We currently have around 100 members, with about a third of those being women. If you come out with us regularly we’re sure you’ll make friends, get fitter and discover lanes and trails that you never realised were there. We want everyone to enjoy riding their bikes as much as we do.
You don’t have to be a member to try riding with us. You can ride with us up to three times to see if you like it. We’re confident you will.
We don’t expect new members to be super fit. Our Saturday rides are split into groups based on speed and our Monday evening Development rides have a reduced pace and distance and are designed to introduce people to group riding if they haven’t done it before. Nobody is ever left behind on any of our club rides. And don’t worry if you aren’t confident changing a flat tyre, there are plenty of experienced members who will be eager to help!
We have a varied program of activities – riding on the road and gravel, time-trials, away days to ride further afield, social meet ups …
We pay particular attention to expanding our members knowledge of refuelling stops on our longer Saturday café rides. We all have our favourites, but it’s always good to try new places.
In addition to club rides, we have members who ride in open TTs, Sportives, Audaxes, and who take themselves off for a spot of bikepacking with everything but the kitchen sink packed onto their 2 wheels. We’re always happy to share our experience with new members, and we like nothing more than chatting about our bike kit!
