Spring Kickoff Event April 8th!
Spring has sprung and those avid Durham Cyclists are ready to hit the roads once again.
We are having an open house for all members and any people who might be interested in joining our club of cycling enthusiasts. No obligation to join, just come investigate why cycling with us is not just great exercise but fun and rewarding. If you are already a member, it is a good chance to pay your low annual dues and catch up with fellow cyclists after our winter hibernation. Come out for a great evening of food and fun and check out the exciting things planned for this year.

The Durham Cycling Club Story
Founded in 1991 the Durham Cycling Club is a non-profit organization of avid recreational cyclists. Formerly the Touring Concept Cycling Group, the goal of the club is to promote fitness through cycling as well as social camaraderie among the group.
We are based in the Region of Durham, where most of our rides start. The season runs from April 1 to October 31. We ride every Sunday with many Saturday morning, Tuesday evening and Thursday evening rides available. Our club members volunteer to plan and host the rides, leading to a variety of routes on the roads of Durham Region and beyond. Monthly gravel routes are also an option, usually on a Saturday.
Riders are encouraged to maintain a minimum pace of 20 kph. Distances progress from 40-60 km in the spring to longer distances (70-100 km) in the summer, leading up to our premier event of the season, the Century ride. This fully supported club Century, with routes varying from 100 to 160 km, is an exciting challenge for all riders.
