CORE Bike Club
More than a ride. A community.
Good rides. Great people. Everyone welcome.
We are a friendly cycling community based in Topsham, Exeter. Whether you are new to group riding, returning to cycling or looking for good company on two wheels, come and find your place at CORE.
Find your ride
Monday · Social ride
A relaxed daytime ride to start the week in good company. Explore local roads, meet fellow cyclists and enjoy a sociable pace. We ride together and look out for one another.
Thursday · Evening groups
Different ability groups help you ride with people of a similar pace and experience. Choose a steadier social spin or a more challenging ride, with time for a catch-up afterwards.
Sunday · Weekend adventures
Our regular Sunday morning rides explore the local countryside. On the last Sunday of the month, an extended ride takes us a little further.
