Find your bunch.
Find your people.

Whether it's your first bunch ride or your fiftieth, cycling is always better with people beside you.

From beginners to racers, we support riders of every background, ambition and pace.

WHY JOIN VRT

More than a membership

Joining VRT isn't about adding another jersey to the wardrobe. It's about becoming part of a club that rides together, races together and backs each other every step of the way.

Some members race every weekend. Others never pin on a number. What brings everyone together is a shared love of cycling and a community that's always happy to welcome another wheel into the bunch.

You don't need to be the fastest rider or know anyone at the club to fit in. The best way to see if VRT is right for you is to join a ride first.

WHAT'S INCLUDED

Everything that comes with being part of VRT

Joining VRT gives you access to far more than a ride calendar. It's a community of riders, regular training, racing opportunities and the support to enjoy every kilometre.

TRIAL RIDES

Ride With Us Before You Join

The best way to see if VRT is right for you is to join us for up to three trial rides before becoming a member.

If you already know a VRT member, you can simply arrange to ride with them. If you don’t know anyone in the club, contact the Club Secretary and we’ll introduce you to a member who will look after you on your first ride.

Each trial rider is sponsored by an existing VRT member. This isn’t a formal process. It simply means a member is happy to ride with you, introduce you to the group and vouch for you during your trial period. While we prefer you ride with the same member where possible, it’s not essential.

You’re welcome to join any VRT ride during your three-ride trial period. If you’re unsure which ride best suits your experience or fitness, just ask and we’ll point you in the right direction

After your trial rides, if you’d like to become a member, simply choose the membership option that’s right for you and complete your registration.
