Would you like to meet other ladies of similar cycling ability and goals for training? If so, Orwell's Meet and Train Sessions may be ideal for you, whether you're planning to race, tackle a challenging long distance event such as the Wicklow 100/200 or just want to get fit and have fun. Throughout much of the year, Orwell organises women only training spins that start on Saturday's from Joe Daly Cycles in Dundrum. These let you meet and cycle with the other female members of the club in a stress-free, friendly atmosphere. These spins start from October at 10:00am but start at 9:30am when the days start to get longer. (Send email to to the address listed below to confirm the time if you are not on the mailing list.)

We maintain a female members contact list which lets us periodically send out news about related club spins and events. You can also contact other members from the list to organise your own mid-week spins.

Even if you are not a member of Orwell Wheelers, it will still be necessary to obtain a Cycling Ireland Licence to ensure full insurance cover during training spins. Forms may be downloaded from the Membership section. Please let us know if you require any assistance with completing them.

Bikes should also be in good mechanical order with brakes/gears regularly serviced and tires pumped hard and properly fitting helmets are compulsory. Also ensure that you carry at least one spare tube, tyre levers and a drink and snack on all training spins. A light rain-coat is also useful in this unpredictable weather!
