Cycling for all
We welcome all adult cyclists to ride with us. If you're interesting in riding with a club and live in the Esher, Thames Ditton, Cobham or the wider Elmbridge area, get in touch.
We have groups that ride from 25miles on the flat to groups doing long rides into the Surrey Hills and beyond. We have faster groups and slow and social groups. The main thing is that everyone enjoys themselves.
Our ethos is to ensure we all enjoy cycling as a group. We are a group of friends cycling to get fitter and to have some fun - and everyone who joins us enjoys it.

A nice stretch of the legs or maybe a graduation from flat ride. Your choice! This ride climbs twice. Gradually up from Cobham to Effingham and then steeper up Beech Avenue/Critten Lane to Ranmore Common Road. Descend down to Westhumble. Cross the A24 and attack Box Hill Zig-Zag. Coffee at the cafe and head home. […]

This is a 30mile/50km easy route with no big hills. Out via Cobham and Plough Lane to Ripley (potential coffee stop). A loop around Send and Send Hill (not steep) and back. Right click and download.

This is a route I rode and then noticed that other DV members were doing the identical ride a few days later! To me, it is simply Forest Green and beyond, to some quiet lanes. The return leg goes up Leith Hill and down Coldharbour to Dorking. There is a fair amount of climbing to […]
