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.
