About Us

Originally a small group of friends of the Hub Velo bike shop who wanted to ride together, we are now a large, tight-knit and inclusive community united by our shared passion for bike riding in all its forms.

We have members from a range of backgrounds and we’re proud of our friendly and supportive culture. We are open to anyone who has the ability to join one of our club runs and we want everyone to feel warmly welcomed and included.

Our rides cater for a range of abilities, with weekly Saturday morning club rides on the road with three or four groups most weekends, mountain bike and cyclocross rides.

If you're more inclined to race, there's a bunch of us that compete at local, regional and national competitions across multiple disciplines.

There’s never any pressure to focus on any one aspect though - and together we'll give you a hand to help you achieve your goals on the bike too!

Throughout the year we host a wide variety of events. From helping put on local cyclocross races, exploring on two wheels abroad, some pretty special annual rides to a barbecue out in the countryside, there's always something for everyone and no shortage of things going on.

WE’RE A FUN SOCIAL BUNCH, AND WE ARE PROUD OF WHAT OUR MEMBERS HAVE ACHIEVED.

A Brief History of Hub Velo

2014

Hub Velo first opens its doors in Hackney and begins trading.

2016

The shop expands next door, and the humble beginnings of Hub Velo Cycling Club start,  with a small group of friends and staff of the Hub Velo bike shop meeting weekly for bike rides out of London into Essex.

2018

Hub Velo CC grows, with our 100th member joining! A committee dedicated to managing the community of riders is formed.

2020

Now in our fifth year, HVCC is as big as it’s ever been! With 200 members and counting, we now have three separate group rides every Saturday leaving from Hub Velo HQ.

Our cycling hub

The heart of our community is Hub Velo - our bike shop, cafe and community space. We love watching bike races, enjoy good coffee and refreshments, have our bikes serviced and it’s also our one-stop-shop for club matters.

Do pop by and say hello, there’s always a friendly face!
