So, what does it take to run a volunteer only cycle club?

As you can see from the listings below it takes a lot to keep a club running. Contribution, involvement and load sharing by volunteers make EGCC a great club to be with. If you are able to contribute to any of these tasks and/or roles, please contact a committee member.

Training Rides

You are welcome to join us on regular rides during the week and on weekends.

The group rides cater for all types of riders but there may not be a ride for every ability. The main focus of our rides are the weekend rides on Saturday and on Sunday in the non-race season (October to February). We strongly recommend that you have a AusCycling ride or race licence so that yourself AND the other riders are covered by insurance in the event of an accident.

Membership information can be found here.

Group Ride Etiquette

We do expect all riders participating in group rides to familiarise themselves with the “Group Ride Etiquette”.

If you are intending to join a group ride for the first time we encourage you to contact us beforehand at

Please note that dangerous, irresponsible or anti-social behavior by ANY rider will not be tolerated.
