Do you usually cycle alone? This is your chance to head out together.

Maybe this sounds familiar. You hop on your bike regularly, cover plenty of kilometers through the region, and enjoy the freedom of cycling. But you usually ride alone. Maybe because you don’t have any regular cycling buddies. Maybe because you think a cycling club is only for hardcore competitive riders. Or maybe because it feels a bit intimidating to just join a group that already knows each other.

 

That’s exactly why various cycling clubs and cycling initiatives around the Eneco Tour are organizing introductory rides, social rides, and trial sessions. No complicated commitments. Just enjoying a ride together.

 

Discover what it’s like to ride in a group, meet new people, benefit from the experience of other cyclists, and enjoy the camaraderie that many cyclists miss out on for years because they always ride alone.

 

More Than Just One Day

The Eneco Tour on October 15 is, of course, the perfect time to experience the cycling atmosphere in Tilburg and the surrounding area. But these activities are primarily intended as an introduction. Do you like it? If so, you can often continue to join training sessions, social rides, and club rides in the region even after October 15.

 

Who knows—that solo ride this coming Sunday might just be the last one you do on your own.
