Women's Cycling Ulster

Share

It is a non-exclusive group and offers something for every woman in Ulster interested in riding a bike.

Women’s Cycling Ulster is about women who have spirit, drive and most importantly a passion for riding their bikes, whether to simply enjoy leisure and club cycling in groups of like minded people, or to compete at anything from local to national or international level.
