John Henry the Bicycle Man’s 'Pedals and Pints' Riding Club is back and primed up to give you even more value than last year. Guaranteed!
Why Should I Join Up?
You’ll receive a including improved options on last year.
You are cordially invited to all of our insured and professionally led rides. These include Tuesday night “Ladies Only” rides (yes, really only for women – sorry boys you can meet them later at the pub), Wednesday night Downhill/Freeride night, Thursday All Mountain night, Sunday morning Road rides, and selected Saturday ‘off the North Shore’, out of town rides.
Each week you are able to choose between these rides or take part in all of them as you wish. All rides are fully organized with trained and certified leaders. Excluding the ‘Ladie’s Only’ night, where the women reign supreme, the rest of the club rides preach an interactive, co-ed, open, and fun atmosphere.
‘Pedals and Pints’ prides itself on offering you at least 40 organized rides and the potential for you to be involved in more than 100 organized rides all for a nominal club fee to cover costs and insurance. But that’s not all….
