Can anyone recommend any cycling clubs in the Preston / Leyland area?

morning all - can anyone recommend a cycling club in the Preston/Leyland area. I'm currently doing sportives and getting out on my own (about 150 miles a week). Not interested in racing just enjoy long rides.

I'm thinking about joining the Ribble Valley CRC - http://www.ribblevalleycrc.com/ or there is the Preston Wheelers - http://www.prestonwheelers.com/. TBH I don't know much about either except I did the RVCC Audax on Sunday and everyone was friendly enough

cheers for that Paul - both of them look good.

The Preston Wheelers are mainly for time-trials...

On the Preston front, Lancashire Road Club often meet as a secondary point at Ribble Bridge around 10.00am including this Sunday.

There's Kingston Wheelers, depending on how far west you are. Not ridden with them myself but I've seen people at events and they seem to have a fair range of ages and abilities and be pretty friendly.

Or if you are that way inclined there's Willesden CC, one of the biggest audax clubs. They do road and other cycling though audax is what they're best known for.

Of course you could do laps of Richmond Park with London Dynamo but of you're new to road cycling that might not be the best place to start.
