Membership

We are an inclusive club with a broad mix of members of all ages, experience and abilities. The biggest benefit our members get is being part of a diverse and welcoming cycling community. Whatever your cycling ambitions, whether that’s social riding, audax, sportives or competitive racing, there is something for everyone here between the regular club runs, chain gangs and time trials. We even have a growing off-road section for those into mountain biking or cyclocross.

We welcome all potential members to come along and try a few club rides first to see if they like it, but after those initial rides we really would encourage you to join to get the full benefit of being a club member.

The membership year runs from January to December although you can join at any time.

We utilise Spond, a comprehensive platform that streamlines our club operations by consolidating all our club activities into one convenient space. With Spond, members can effortlessly book rides, plan events, and stay updated on club announcements and communications.

Accessible both as a user-friendly app (available for free download from app stores) and on desktop, Spond offers the flexibility to engage with our club activities anytime, anywhere. For the optimal user experience, we highly recommend using the Spond app. Join us on Spond and embark on your cycling journey with Chester Road Club today! To find out more about Spond as a member or non-member, please see our dedicated page here.
