Meet n’ Spin is a recreational cycling group with the emphasis on fun first, fitness and speed second. All abilities are welcomed and catered for. At each spin we have a number of bikes and helmets available for use by the group participants so you don’t even need a bicycle to get started.

Over 12 weeks participants will cycle a variety of local routes ranging from a standard 10K local loop taking 1 hour , to 15 and 20k loops for those who want a little more of a challenge . Local cycle routes will be used including the Cycle Hub, Cycle Loops, Active Travel Network, and Local Roads. Beginners will start in the standard 10K group and as they feel more confident can progress onto longer loops as the week’s progress. Groups maybe split depending on preferred distances.

The spins are led by a minimum of 2 qualified Bike Start Tutors who will advise and coordinate the spin based on participants needs. Within the 12 week programme there will be elements of bike safety, maintenance, as well as road craft rules. The objective will be to give everyone the ability to cycle on our local roads using correct methods for negotiating roundabouts, T-junctions and busy town centres. This will all take place informally but will result in participants receiving a Level 1,2,3 or 4 Bike Start Certificate.
