TANDEM CLUB - WESSEX REGIONThroughout the UK over 40 Regional Officers organise Tandem Club activities on a local basis. Our local region is Wessex which covers the BH, DT, SO and SP post code areas. Currently we have about 90 members.
We organise a varied annual programme of monthly rides with different start points and covering different distances. During the year we aim to offer something for everyone from beginners to experienced harder riders. Social events include an annual regional lunch and a summer BBQ. Our members are a friendly bunch and we would welcome you to join us on one of our led rides, whether you are a tandem club member, or prospective member, or even if you are just considering buying your first tandem, but are still on solo bikes at present. If you would like to find out more please contact Sheila Ward, the Wessex Regional Officer Wessex Rides Programme 2024
