So, you’re interested in joining us — fantastic! We’d be delighted to welcome you. Let’s get the paperwork and fees sorted first. Please read the steps below carefully to complete your application.
First Step — Come Ride With Us
Don’t worry — it’s simple!
All new members are asked to attend a Sunday morning Social Ride. This allows us to:
- assess your riding ability,
- introduce you to the ethos of our club, and
- help you learn how we ride safely together as a group.
This ensures your future rides with us are safer and more enjoyable for everyone.
If you are already a member, you can log in to your CCBexley account to renew your membership.
