The Club
Epping Forest Mountain Bike Club was founded in 1988, which makes us one of the older mountain bike clubs around. Over the years we has taken several forms and changed quite a bit along the way. At our peak in the early nineties there were about 70 members with a core of about 20 regulars, who rode each week, raced and organised nights outs, a newsletter, and club jersey.
But as to be expected people move on and expectations change. The club spent the last few years barely existing with just a few friends meeting on a Sunday, but not really announcing themselves as Epping Forest MTB club.
However today we are growing again after changing direction and aiming to attract the older riders amongst us. Actually there always were quite a few riders in their thirties and forties, just today we aim the group towards those people. And what a great bunch we are.
Now we are a Social Group rather than a real club
Over the years and with the changes time brings we have kept our well known name but are no longer a club as there is no membership and no fees to pay just come along on a Saturday morning.
If you decide to join us you will need to be reasonably fit and have a bike that is up to the job.
If you feel up to the challenge then join us and come along one Saturday or Wednesday and join in. There are no fees to pay just read the disclaimer and send us a message to join - all info is on the "join us" page.
