About o
ur Group Rides:

Bucksmtb offer regular group rides throughout the year to cover all MTB disciplines. Our rides are open to Club members and non members (visitor riders*)

All local riders are welcome to our club rides, and non member visiting riders may join us on up to two rides before having to join the Club as a Club member.

We hold at least one or two Group Ride Events per calendar month. Every month is a XC ride out, alternating between local home locations and away days. A usual example would be one month a local Buckinghamshire/Chilterns ride, and then the next month another location somewhere in Bucks, a surrounding county (e.g. Oxon, Herts, Beds etc) or further a field (e.g. Cannock, Wales). XC rides will have a variety of length routes on offer so that we can cater for all riders of different fitness levels and experience. Throughout the year we also aim to try and base the ride location at a suitable MTB area to cater for DH, 4X and XC riders.

All our Group Rides are led rides, and are led by fully qualified Mountain Bike Trail Leaders (CTC or SMBLA qualified) who hold first aid qualifications and are also CRB checked.

Families and young riders are all most welcome to our rides too. Under 16s can attend our rides without the supervision of a parent or guardian when our ride is advertised as having qualified and certified CRB checked staff on duty. We have a parental consent form available at all rides. We have a strict code of conduct and set of procedures for working with minors and vulnerable adults - these documents are available on request.

For 2012/2013 we are holding regular Group Rides for Cross Country riders. Cross country group rides will be held all over Buckinghamshire and surrounding counties with the options of some 'away' days too. Downhill and 4X group ride days will primarily be catered for at Aston Hill MTB area, our local extreme riding area. For 2011/2012 there will be at least one weekend Group Ride per month throughout the year. In the summer months we will also be organising evening XC rides (weekend and weekdays).

To attend our Group Rides we require you to pre-register online.

Pre-registering is mandatory to attend our rides and is required so that we know numbers attending, for things such as car parking space, number of maps required, number of staff required and so on. Pre-registering is easy, its just an online form that takes about 30 seconds to fill in. For each scheduled Group Ride there will be a page where you can find the online form to fill in and pre-register. You will be required to sign a hard copy of this disclaimer before each ride. Before pre-registering your attendance to any of our Group Ride events please read our
terms and conditions.

We are looking forward to meeting all of you local riders at our Group Ride events throughout 2012/2013.
