London Clarion Cycle Club

London Clarion Cycle Club Welcome to the London Clarion Cycle Club! We organize a variety of mixed-ability cycle rides throughout the year, including themed and training rides.

Established in 1895, we are proud to be a part of the National Clarion Cycling Club. London Clarion Cycle Club is a friendly London Cycling Club with over 200 members from across London. We organise a wide variety of club rides throughout the year and we are known for being an inclusive, relaxed and friendly group of London Cyclists. London Clarion Cycle Club was established in May 1895 this makes

us one of the oldest London Cycling Clubs. The Clarion motto, borrowed from William Morris, is “Fellowship is Life”, thus the aim of the London Clarion Cycle Club is to promote goodwill and fellowship through cycling in a tradition started by groups of members who would cycle out to socialist meetings and distribute literature, whilst often also enjoying a glass of good ale. https://linktr.ee/LondonClarionCycleClub. London Clarion Cycle Club is a section of the National Clarion Cycling Club and is affiliated to CTT (Cycling Time Trials) and the London Cycling Campaign. Please note London Clarion Cycle Club is not affiliated to British Cycling.

Happy World Bicycle Day from the London Clarion Cycle Club! 🚲🌍
For us, the bicycle is so much more than just a frame and two wheels. It’s our passport to the countryside, a tool for a healthier planet, and most importantly the ultimate catalyst for community and camaraderie.
From the historic roots of the Clarion movement to every weekend morning spin we take today, we ride for fellowship, equality, and the simple joy of the open road.
Whether you’re commuting through London traffic, grinding out a century, or just spinning to your local cafe, celebrate today by getting those pedals turning!
Thinking of riding with us? Check the link in our bio for our upcoming club rides. All welcome. 🔴✨
