WELCOME

Welcome to Fat Blokes on Posh Bikes!

Cycling with a group of like minded individuals, at a slower pace, avoiding steep hills, with the goal of losing weight and getting fit.

Cycling is a great sport. Fresh air, a fast breeze and losing weight all at the same time! But you may know what it's like riding with some people - they set a mental pace and love going over hills and up mountain passes that you would prefer to avoid.

Maybe you are taking up or getting back into cycling to improve your health and fitness?

Or maybe you just want to meet other people who enjoy cycling at a more human pace?

Well, Fat Blokes on Posh Bikes is a club for cyclists who don't want to run at an "Armstrong" pace and prefer to avoid "unnecessary" hills.

Any adult is welcome to join us on our rides. Our rides usually take place on a weekend or after work during the weekday depending on weather and other factors.

What sorts of rides we do

Slower paced rides for adults, avoiding hills, maybe along the lake front of Lac Leman (Lake Geneva) or on the Route de Vignoble, rolling at 15 to 30kph, and for anywhere from 20km to 40km or more, depending on how the group feels. Typically, groups meet up at Hotel Réal in Nyon on the lake front.

Naturally, people's wants and needs will play a big role. A group of mountain and city bike riders may find it hard to keep up with road bike riders, so some groups may break out in the beginning.

Interested? Join us!
