Welcome to the Hounslow and District Wheelers web site

We are a racing and sporting cycling club based to the west of London. Our clubhouse is Staines Sailing Club, 105 Chertsey Lane, Staines where we meet every Tuesday night for refreshments and a chat at 8.45pm.

We have a full programme of sunday club runs that leave Staines Bridge at 9.15am for a social ride of about 50-60 miles with a café stop. After Christmas there is also a Training Ride from Staines Bridge covering 60-70 miles without a break at a faster pace. For off road enthusiasts there is a Saturday morning off road ride during the autumn and winter months.

On Tuesday evenings in Summer there is a fast training ride starting from Bishop's Gate, Windsor Great Park at 6.30pm and a slower ride starting from the Clubhouse at the same time. A second ride from the Clubhouse sometimes leaves at 7pm. These rides start and finish with BST and times may vary at the beginning and end of BST.

We have a full programme of social activities including the Club Dinner and also organise tours throughout the year to continental one day races, the Ghent 6, the Tour de France and the Pyrenees for example. We also organise an early season training camp in Mallorca. Four times a year we publish the club newsletter, Quarter Wheeler.

We operate a full racing programme of road races and time trials open to members and non-members. These include Thursday evening 10s and other club events in the summer where you can enter on the line and have a go!

We pride ourselves on making new faces very welcome which, we believe, is why we are a successful and growing club. If you'd like to take a closer look you are welcome to just turn up to the clubhouse or at Staines Bridge for a clubrun.

You may be a bit nervous about joining a club and riding with other people or have other questions in which case have a look at our FAQs or just email us.
