If you are looking to join a club for any reason, then Airedale Olympic might be the club for you.

Joining couldn't be easier, turn up for a ride if you are experienced and reasonably fit, join later if you like it.

For beginners or if you are not sure of your capabilities, make contact on the via the contact page, explain where you think you're at in cycling experience, and we can arrange a suitable ride to get you started. We have a Saturday ride most weekends (see Saturday rides page) that is suitable for beginners, again make contact via the contact page and get yourself started.

Most people are capable of a lot more than they imagine once they have encouraging company to ride with, the fear of the unknown is often the only barrier to enjoying the many great rides here in Yorkshire.

Still not sure? then come to the club meeting held the third Monday of every month for advice. These are held at the R.A.F.A. club St John Road on A65 Yeadon SAT NAV = LS19 7NA - 7.45 pm. There is also a social meeting at Coopers Bistro in Guiseley on the 1st Monday of the month at 20.30 hours.

Last Round of the Airedale 2012 10 Mile TT Series Addingham

9 Riders took the line including one debut ride by Duncan Warner.  The evening was cooler but dry with a steady head wind out. The expectations were high for some PB's and the promise of the after event bufet at the Crown Inn. Barry Cole improves once again by beating his own best result.
