Royal Dean Forest CC

Deep in the Royal Forest of Dean, based in Parkend, Gloucestershire, Royal Dean Forest CC offers a broad church of cycling activities. From the quiet lanes of the surrounding countryside to the challenging trails of the forest itself, the club caters to a diverse range of riders. This is a club with a strong community feel, where the social aspect of cycling is just as important as the miles covered.

Road riding is a key element, with opportunities for both fast-paced chain gangs and more leisurely touring rides. For those with a competitive edge, time trialling provides a chance to test themselves against the clock. Mountain bikers can explore the extensive off-road network, while social rides offer a relaxed way to enjoy the scenery and camaraderie. Racing also features within the club's activities.

Royal Dean Forest CC is affiliated with both British Cycling and Cycling Time Trials. This allows members to participate in sanctioned events and benefit from insurance and other support. Membership provides access to all club activities.

Royal Dean Forest CC welcomes new members of all abilities. If you're a cyclist in Gloucestershire looking for a friendly and active club, consider getting in touch. Discover the joy of riding with a group and explore the beautiful Forest of Dean.
