I am hopefully purchasing my first Road bike soon and in the next couple of months I move from Rayleigh to Upminster.

I am hoping to join a local cycle club for social rides to start and who knows if I drop a couple of stone I may even enter a novice race or some kind of charity ride.

Anyway is anyone a member of a club ? if so is it a good thing to be in? and can anyone recommend any clubs around the Upminster romford havering general area?

Thanks

    I'm not local but am a member of my local club in south-east London and thoroughly recommend it.

    Phreak - That's not Dulwich Paragon is it? I join the hordes descending on the roads with them too. Their Saturday ride has up to about 60 riders.... It's getting too popular for its own good.
