HOW DO I JOIN?
We just need a few details from you via our member application form alongside the membership fee. Find out more and download the form on the Join Swan Wheelers page.
Do I need a particular kind of Bike?
Not for the leisure rides. Mountain bikes, road bikes and hybrids are all regularly seen on the leisure ride.
If you're thinking of participating in one of the medium or fast rides, you probably want to consider using a road bike due to the higher speeds of these rides.
Of course if you're joining one of our off-road rides then we definitely recommend a mountain bike!
