University of St Andrews Cycling Club

The University of St Andrews cycling club is for people of all levels and abilities. We cater to both road riders and mountain bikers offering a variety of sessions a week and mid semester trips.

Club sessions

Meeting at the sports centre the club offers at least one session for both mountain biking and road cycling a week.

For mountain biking there are two forests for different abilities both within a twenty minute ride from St Andrews that we use. We also have two mountain bikes available for members to borrow when we go out and a few times a semester we will run trips to bigger trail centres for access to different types of fun and the chance for people to try something new.

Road cycling runs 1 – 2 rides per week. Rides generally will be around 20-40 km for our regular sessions. Club rides are friendly and open to anyone, and all abilities are catered for. Occasionally we may travel to locations outside of St Andrews for a bit of variety and all you require to attend is a working bike and a helmet. Ride leaders will adjust the pace and distance to suit those who attend.

We also occasionally will run some gravel rides for those who are interested as there are some routes out of the town we are able to use.
For all rides, days and times will be communicated at the start of each week via the weekly club email and will also be sent out via WhatsApp.
