The Watford Velo Sport club was formed in 2009 to encourage and support members who shared a passion for cycling.
We are very active in all aspects of competition, including road racing, time trialling, hill climbing and mountain biking. 
At the heart of our club is the weekly Sunday club run. 
​This is a more social ride as we explore the best hills and cafes that Herts, Bucks and beyond have to offer.

Since you are here, why not have a look around and view information about our club. You will find information about the events we run, club history, some of the routes we ride and most importantly how to join.

WVS trip to Majorca March 6th to 13th 2022
The location will again be Alcudia and I am expecting us to be able to book in the same hotel as 2020, Ivory Playa in Alcudia (www.hotelivory.com). You can book via all the major websites. This is a large hotel with a bike shop over the road with storage, mechanics and bike hire (www.bicimed.com).
Alcudia is a good central location with plenty of bars, restaurants and access to beach and cycle routes.
I hope that as many of you as possible may be able to come and that we can again have multiple groups at different paces. In the past we have had riders come for a full week or part of a week or just overlap with the core dates above. Groups can set off at different paces and meet up at any one of a number of great locations. It really is a cycling paradise!
BA currently have good prices on flights which includes bike carriage or you could hire a high quality bike there if you wanted. In the past we have organised as pairs for room and car hire sharing.
Any questions please don't hesitate to ask. As things develop we will have a Whatsapp channel for discussion and (please!) some of this posted on the website for non FB users.
Look forward to seeing you there.
