Protocol for new riders on club runs:
Maryland welcomes all new riders and the club runs are open to all to come along and try out.
As our club runs are organised events we are asking that non-members sign-on the disclaimer form at the start of the run.
After having been out with the club for up to three rides we expect new riders to then take out a Cycling Ireland licence and membership of the club if they wish to continue to join our club runs.
Current fees can be as low as £20 for the club and £9 for Cycling Ireland membership which then gives added insurance and third party protections;as well as a full year,s program of organised events in addition to three club runs per week.
