A club spokesperson said: “If you’re new or returning to cycling why not join us. Groups leave the garage on Strand Road, Coleraine on Sunday mornings at 9am, Tuesday at 6pm and Thursday at 6pm.

“From Sunday, September 18 at 9am a new and returning riders’ group ride will begin with a strict 15-16mph. Everyone is welcome to join this and hopefully we will see some old club members as well as new riders join this group.”
