WCCC Membership
|
Joining the Wadebridge Coasters Cycling Club is about far more than simply riding a bike — it’s about becoming part of a welcoming community of people who share a passion for cycling, fitness, adventure, and camaraderie. Whether you are a complete beginner looking to build confidence on the road or an experienced rider seeking challenging routes and strong group rides, the club offers a supportive environment where everyone can improve and enjoy the sport together. Riding with a club also brings practical benefits: safer group riding skills, motivation to ride regularly, organised routes, local cycling knowledge, and the encouragement that comes from tackling hills, headwinds, and suspiciously optimistic café-stop distances alongside others. Most importantly, the Wadebridge Coasters are built on friendship, respect, and a shared love of two wheels — with just enough coffee and cake to make even the toughest ride seem like an excellent idea afterward.
