Welcome to the Ecurie Neeps!

The EcurieNeep Mountain Bike Club was formed in 1993, by a group of cyclists who enjoy off-road mountain biking and welcome both male and females. Membership has grown steadily in recent years to about 40, with a nucleus of about 10 members who have remained with the club throughout its history.

Originally the club consisted of fit cyclists who rode hard and competed in mountain bike races mainly in Scotland, but also in England, with a good degree of success.

Today a few members still race, but the majority are involved in social XC and downhill biking. The downhill rides are usually arranged via our forum. The social XC rides are held on Wednesday nights and Sundays, the ride locations and times can be seen on the ride lists.

You are welcome to join us on any of our rides. If you are interested but apprehensive about the pace or grade of routes, you may wish to join us on our ‘Beginners Rides’ held every month. On these rides the slowest rider sets the pace and all are welcome (riders under 16 must be accompanied by a parent or guardian).

There are several benefits of being a club member, for details please click here
