Welcome to Macedon Ranges Cycling Club

We are a friendly and welcoming cycling club located in the beautiful Macedon Ranges.

We conduct group rides on Sundays.

The starting point for Sunday rides alternates between Kyneton, Woodend and Gisborne – with occasional Sunday rides starting in other towns in the Macedon Ranges. Sunday ride options include a shorter ride of around 40 km at an average speed in the low 20’s kmh, and a longer ride of around 60 km at an average speed of around 25+ kmh.

The Club organises a trip to Bright in November each year and holds gravel rides on the 2nd Saturday of the month – see ‘Special Events’ for further information.

Please don’t hesitate to contact us for further information.

Macedon Ranges Cycling Club – Purpose

MRCC’s primary purpose is to organise group rides for members.

MRCC also:

  • organises special events that directly benefit Club members; and
  • facilitates networking opportunities for members to share Club and cycling-related information.

How we deliver on this Purpose

The Club:

  • Organises group rides for members including
    • Road rides of two distances every Sunday throughout the year from a range of locations in the Macedon Ranges
    • Other group rides on certain public holidays and weekend trips such as an annual trip to Bright
    • A gravel ride on the second Saturday of each month except in Winter.
  • Organises special events for the enjoyment of Club members and their families, including a Christmas lunch and other social activities as decided by the Committee.
  • Facilitates networking opportunities for members to share Club and cycling-related information, including:
    • A members’ chat group on WhatsApp
    • A members-only marketplace group on WhatsApp for members to exchange and sell bike parts and cycling kit
    • A members-only group on Strava
  • Supports third-party cycling activities if they are not-for-profit and they provide benefits to Club members.
