The aim of the club is to help as many people as we can to get out to ride their bike and to help them get fitter, there are no fee`s and a we get to have a bit of a laugh and see some of our beautiful country.
The club was really set up as an idea from the bikepod owner, Cameron Fisher and Davie Weir in response to people coming into the shop looking for either somewhere to ride or someone to ride with. The format is very loose in that their are no fees or rules and regulations. This is simply a group of like minded people who just want to get out to ride their bikes and this is done on the understanding that each person is responsible for themselves (is that a rule !!! ).
The first run of the bike club was in August 2005 and this was around Chatelherault. Since then we have met every Sunday morning to ride, this usually means an 8.00am and we meet at Sainsbury's Hamilton where we organise transport. We have had a wide variety of runs using both the man made and natural resources that we in Scotland have in abundance.
There is a mixture of skills within the people who come along but we can normally accommodate anyone who has a basic level of fitness or at least willing to acquire a basic level of fitness. The runs also reflect a mixture of skills, fitness and enjoyment and we can usually advise anyone on what might suit them.
The most important part of the club is the enjoyment that we all have for the sport of mountain biking.
