Riding from Croydon & Coulsdon into
Surrey, Sussex & Kent at conversational pace
Join Us
Try before you buy; we allow non-members to attend up to three rides before joining to see if we are the right club for you. Even if we are not, our members have contacts and we may be able to point you in the direction of a club that would be suitable. Annual membership costs just £20 once you decide to join.
If you know a member already feel free to use this contact to get you on a ride, otherwise contact us via this link and our ride manager will try and find you a suitable ride as a try out.
Our Rides
Anerley BC organise group rides during the week as well as on weekends but riders are required to pre-register for safety reasons. Group sizes are normally restricted to around 8 riders.
As a guide, if you can ride 20 miles comfortably at 10 mph and don’t mind a hill – you should be fine on “relaxed” rides. Riding in a group regularly means you may find you can go further and faster. There are Steady rides which are maybe 12 mph and between 30 and 50 miles, and Off-road rides too.
Our Members
Our members range from the very experienced touring cyclist with 40 years experience, to members who took up cycling more recently. We have some more mature riders who have graduated to e-bikes to keep up, road cyclists who also like to do longer Sportives or Audax, and riders who prefer off-road gravel riding to avoid the traffic.
As we are very active with midweek rides, we are especially suitable for riders with flexible work patterns or retirees wishing to get out on their bikes with other likeminded cyclists.
Our members come from the London Boroughs of Sutton and Croydon including the towns of Croydon, Wallington, Carshalton, Sutton, Purley, Kenley, Whyteleafe, Warlingham, Bromley, West Wickham, Shirley, Addington, and Caterham. In fact anywhere in South London!
