The Kettering Community Cycle Club rides provide a stepped way to get into cycling in our area. The routes are not taxing and are about building confidence in people who aren’t sure about riding on the road or want to find some of the different cycling routes around town. If you find you need more of a challenge then our friends have a look at the Kettering Cycling Club - which is for more ambitious, longer distance, more competitive riders.
For our own group - Kettering Community Cycle Club - we are grateful for the support of all our trained volunteer rider leaders. If you are interested in becoming a ride leader too, please email projects@brightwayz.co.uk as we offer some Cycling UK ride leader training opportunities.
Cycle service and bike kitchen are funded by Cycling UK's Big Bike Revival or Kettering Town Council grants and include a service to your bike with minor repairs and tips on how to maintain or do simple fixes.
