Herne Hill Youth Cycle Club

Build confidence

Racing

Racing can look intimidating, but it's fun, accessible to all, and a great way for children to build confidence on and off the bike.

We encourage our members to race. We have a pool of race-ready bikes to borrow for a one-off event, or rent for a whole season for only £100. Interested? Speak to a coach or any volunteer.

Cyclocross

Off-road cycling for all ages from 6. The London Cyclocross Association season runs 15 events from September to February. Our more competent riders also join the national leagues.
