About us
For those interested in joining our club, please email club Secretary Gill Staines at
Velo Moira is a friendly, social road cycling club based in Moira, Leicestershire. We are a group of like minded cyclists who enjoy riding as a group. Velo Moira aims to provide a very welcoming, safe and enjoyable cycling environment.
​
Our club ethos is 'nobody is left behind.' New members are always welcome to join us, with no obligation to join the club straight away.
​
Velo Moira is welcoming of all cyclists with our current membership including a wide range of ages and a growing number of female riders. For more information about joining VM see our Membership Information page, where you will find an application form.
​
Our Saturday social ride attracts the most VM members as we usually put out three groups of riders catering for all abilities. There is normally a longer tempo ride on a Sunday, and in true cycling tradition all weekend rides include a café stop for coffee and cake. More details on our weekly rides can be found on our FB page.
​
In the summer months we meet at 0815 for an 0830 depart from Moira Furnace car park.. Each group has a nominated Ride Leader who is responsible for the route and maintaining the pace to suit the ability of the group as a whole. We allocate the groups in advance and keep the group sizes to around 8 which we have found adds to the safety and enjoyment of all riders.
​
We also have occasional social evenings where members can meet up to have something to eat and a drink (or two) and discuss all things cycling related!
