About Beaconsfield Cycling Club
Beaconsfield Cycling Club is a social road cycling club based in the Chilterns. Our purpose is to promote the sport of amateur cycling in Beaconsfield and the surrounding area.
We ride mostly in and around the Chilterns but also organise several events in the UK and overseas each year. We run a variety of club rides for different abilities.
Depending on the weather and time of year, we may run up to five or six groups on a Saturday and Sunday morning, starting at the Cenotaph in the Old Town and finishing at the Beech House in the New Town.
Routes are typically 35-60 miles long and will always include several hills, as they are unavoidable living in the Chilterns.
Pace groups:
- Mellow: 20-30 miles, avg 11-13.5 mph
- Steady: avg 13-15.5 mph
- Medium: avg 15-17.5 mph
- Fast: avg 17+ mph
We are a Clubmark accredited club and a British Cycling Go-Ride accredited club. This is a no-drop club.
