Welcome to BikeFit Surrey. We are a small off-road cycling club of up to 50 members and we offer fun, social and relaxed led off-road cycle rides around SE Surrey.
A combination of bridlepaths, fields, woodland and hidden tracks form a large part of our routes which are designed for MTB bikes only. Occationally, mainly in the dryer months, a hybrid bike might also be suitable.
BikeFit offers the following levels of riding (with start times being variable, adjusted to the type of ride):
Tuesday rides:
To join our rides you should be confident to ride 8 to 10 miles. You are welcome to use your ebike if it would otherwise prevent you to take part in the ride.
Thursday rides:
Those rides are aimed for those who are more confident on their bike and can manage some rooty downhill sections occasionally at a faster pace. Non-ebikes only.
Extra rides 9:45am fo 10:00am usually on a Monday or Friday
These rides are for riders who would like to go a little further and steeper and are similar to our Tuesday Steady Rides. It is a mixed ride so you are welcome to use your ebike if it would otherwise prevent you to ride. Average length about 1.5 to 2 hours approx.
Our rides are for MTB bikes and are designed to give you a rich cycling experience with viewpoints and places of interest along the way. They are on a mixture of bridleways, fields and some mostly quiet roads but may include some rougher more challenging terrain- think roots and mud in winter! We are all out to enjoy the experience of sharing the ride with a group of people also out to enjoy themselves on their bikes. We usually meet at a pub afterwards for a drink, maybe something to eat and a chat. Bring layers of clothing with you, especially in the winter.
We are predominatly a non-ebike club but we welcome eMTBs if it would otherwise prevent the rider not to take part eg. due to injury, age or other form of infirmity. Wherever possible electric bike riders should seek to enhance the enjoyment of non-electric bike riders by for example manning gates and finding lost riders.
We do NOT permit e-bikes on a Thursday ride as these rides are reserved for riders to get fit on non-ebikes.
Our club couldn't exist without our riders and their help. Many riders have different roles (eg. ride leaders, committee members, social secretary, webmaster, etc) helping to run the club efficiently and making it a fun experience for everyone.
We are always grateful for any helping hand especially leading rides. We encourage every rider to consider becoming a leader if they so wish and will always support them. Leading rides can also be shared with a another person on the ride.
Easy Easy+ and Steady
These rides are about building confidence and ability. They largely on quiet roads or traffic free paths, working at the pace of the slowest. Average length 1-1.5 hours approx.
To join our Tuesday group, we ask that you can ride between 8 to 10 miles without too much trouble before coming along.
You are welcome to use your ebike if it would otherwise prevent you to ride.
Are you more experienced but would like some company? Do you like the challenge of the odd hill or two? (Although we always wait at the top for those taking a slower pace/walking!) Are you ready to push yourself a little to increase your fitness? Are you happy to break into the occasional sweat? Steady routes are probably best for you.
Steady Steady+ Well and Well+
Starting from in and around the Redhill, Reigate & Dorking areas
These rides are largely on bridlepaths, quiet roads or traffic free paths, working at the pace of the slowest with some hills, and slightly rougher sections. Average length 2 hours approx, usually followed by a pub lunch or snack which can take it up to 2.5 to 3 hours.
If you've been out with us a few times and are ready to broaden your cycling horizons and take on a bit more of a challenge, trying a couple of steeper hills perhaps, or a few more of them, but still at a pace you'll be comfortable with, try our Well routes.
