Hello everybody,

My name is Vincent, I am 25 (and French as well!) and I would like to join you at the mountain bike section! Nobody answer at membershipsecretary@addiscombe.org so please, can you help me?!!
I just want to know the day and hour we can meet for a ride, the website is not very clear to me...

Thank you for your help,

PS: I can also send you my email address and phone number if you need it.

Hi Vincent,

We meet at [url=https://www.google.co.uk/maps/place/Coulsdon+South/@51.315835,-0.137861,17z/data=!3m1!4b1!4m2!3m1!1s0x4875fda7da23b1d5:0x1659daf5657423a]Coulsdon South Station[/url] every Saturday morning at 9:00am. There are a variety of different speed groups. If you're a first time visitor, then if you could introduce yourself to a VC (look out for white tops/armbands) and complete a guest form then that would be great. We don't mind people coming for a couple of rides with us to check it out before applying for [url=http://www.addiscombe.org/membership/]membership[/url]. It's pretty cheap and you save it back in bike shop discounts in no time.

If you look on the Rides section of the forum there are often other rides on Sundays for instance.

But that's road cycling - hopefully one of the more committed mountainbikers will see this or someone will tell them.

Hi Vincent,

I have dropped an email to a couple of people I know have been involved in mountain biking to contact you. We are primarily a road club but I know there are quite a few who go off road, mountain biking or cyclo cross and some rides do get posted up on the forum but it's more informally organised. Hopefully, either Marco or Mark will get in touch soon.

Hi Vincent

Sorry, we don't like to disappoint anyone but we are mainly a road club. Our MTB secretary resigned recently and hasn't been replaced. I can't give out personal details without speaking to the members and getting their permission. So be patient and I'll try my best to get you in touch with some serious MTBers.

Best wishes and happy cycling
