Chilterns chainy

Every Saturday morning throughout winter, cyclists around Great Missenden anticipate the Chilterns Chainy chain gang. This is a club built on a shared love for cycling and camaraderie in the Chilterns. The focus is firmly on fun, ensuring every ride is enjoyable, whatever the weather.

The backbone of the club is the Saturday chain gang. The route involves a challenging 7km loop starting at the bottom of Bryants Bottom, progressing up to the Speen turn. Riders then take a left turn off Bryants at Speen, followed by another left back down to the Hughenden Valley, and then back up Bryants Bottom. This loop is repeated five times. On the final lap, the chain gang skips the Speen turn, continuing to the very top of Bryants Bottom, finishing just before Peters Lane (Whiteleaf). The club also provides social rides for those looking for a more relaxed pace.

Chilterns Chainy offers membership for those wanting to be a more formal part of the group.

For cyclists seeking a friendly, informal club experience in the Great Missenden area, Chilterns Chainy provides a welcoming environment. New riders are encouraged to get in touch and join a Saturday chain gang to experience the club firsthand.
