About the club
Godiva Trailriders is a mountain bike club based in Coventry, England. The club is for everyone, most regular riders have a good level of fitness and skill, if you're new to mountain biking you should
look out for one of our beginners sessions.
Most of our riding is cross country, though we do have trips to trail and downhill centres too. Bigger days or weekends out in Wales, Cotswolds or the Peak District are popular, and some of us are into bikepacking. Running singlespeed is popular, but not madatory, as it suits our local riding conditions very well. We also take part in a variety of races, some serious, some less so, and have been known to travel all across Europe to participate in the European Singlespeed Championships. We hosted a VERY successful SSUK (Singlespeed UK Championships) in 2016,2022 and 2023.
Coventry, whilst admittedly not exactly the mountain biking centre of the universe, does have some pretty interesting rides. The way we see it, we have to make the most of what we've got and, most importantly, it's supposed to be fun.
To get the most out of our rides, a reasonable level of fitness and experience is necessary. A typical Wednesday Night Ride is 15 - 20 miles mostly offroad. However, we've all been beginners and know that learning is the hard part. We're happy to welcome keen & enthusiastic riders who're willing to learn and join in.
If you fancy getting out and riding with us, our Facebook group is easy to find, everything is organised on there. Our usual meeting place is The Bell on Bennetts Road South, Coventry.
