Frequently Asked Questions

Whether you’re a new rider or an experienced road warrior, we’re sure you’ve got some questions about our club.

Do I need an expensive bike to join Coburg Cycling Club?

Not at all. All you need is a love for cycling. In fact, if you don’t have a bike our experienced riders can help you select the best bike to suit your needs at the right price.

Do I have to race?

No, we offer recreational memberships and plenty of non-racing activities. We just want to help you become a better, safer rider.

Will I be able to keep up on club rides? How fit do I have to be?

We have members of a wide range of abilities. Some of our members are absolute beginners, just learning about cycling. Our club rides reflect this diversity. As such, there is a golden rule on all club rides: no-one gets left behind.

Can you help me learn about bike maintenance and other aspects of cycling?

Yes, our experienced members are more than happy to share their knowledge about things like the art of bike maintenance and repair, nutrition, safe cycling and riding technique.

Can I transfer to Coburg from another club?

Yes. A number of our members have come from other clubs to take advantage of our mix of social, training and racing activities. For more information, please contact the Club: coburg@coburgcycling.com.au.
