Welcome to

Quanta-Scott Orwell Wheelers Cycling Club

Founded in 1948, Orwell Wheelers is amongst the biggest and most famous cycling clubs in Ireland. Based in Dublin, we cater to all levels of fitness and ability - from beginners to elite riders, male and female from youth to veteran. The club had its roots in road racing but has become very active in many other areas including leisure riding, audaxing, randonnée events, cyclocross and track racing. We run organised weekly training spins most of the year.

Membership is currently closed for NEW members.

For existing and returning members see the membership page for sign up link

Pathways to Membership will reopen in May 2020 for the next club intake. See membership page for details

COVID-19 Notice 27th March

From midnight tonight, the Government is putting new restrictions in place until Easter Sunday. PLEASE be sensible and follow the guidelines. If you want to train then get on the turbo or rollers and train indoors. If you need some fresh air then stay within 2km of home. It's for 2 weeks - it could save lives!

Online cycling simulates cycling outdoors while you use your trainer at home. You use a desktop computer or laptop and an online cycling service such as Zwift, Rouvy, RGT or Sufferfest to display a virtual road on the screen in front of you, including other cyclists on the road too. The other cyclists represent people who are doing the same as you, riding their trainers. The harder you pedal your trainer the faster you go on the virtual road on the screen – just like in real life.
