About Us -
The Gemini is a traditional style cycling club, regularly organizing and assisting with the operation of several cycle events each year. The club currently has approximately 60 members many of whom regularly compete in cycle competitions.
- Road Racing
The club has always had a strong presence in road events. The bright orange jerseys of the Gemini are often represented in everything from local circuit races in the UK, to the mud splattered gutters of tight Belgium streets. Whatever your current interest in cycling, the Gemini Bicycle Club has a history of helping new and inexperienced riders find their feet, whatever their ability.

- Time Trials
Time trialling is solo racing against the clock.... It suits a lot of riders lifestyles, and if you're new to racing it can fit well around family life.
It has gained momentum with club members more recently, with some fast times and healthy competition between riders.
Riders participate in RTTC and KCA events. The club assists in the organisation of an open time trial in Kent.

Riders have participated in a number of the "Red Bull" 24-hour events as well as other single day races such as "SAMS".
We also try and organise MTB winter trips to the trail centres in the hills of south wales.....but we usually wait till its minus 5 degrees and snowing for adventures like that.

Over recent years, the boards at Herne Hill, Manchester and now the new Olympic stadium have seen a return by the wheels of club members.
