Welcome to

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.

I hope you enjoy this video about disc brakes, and most importantly if you have an issue with your brakes you do something about them. Thanks to Val Smith for all his work.

We welcome the revised government guidelines announced on 29/4//2021 that signal a return to club training activities in the coming weeks. It's been a long winter for everyone cycling alone or indoors without the company of our clubmates and friends. The support from club members for the government guidelines over the last year has been fantastic and thankfully we will now all enjoy the opportunity to reap the rewards of everyone's efforts and look forward to a summer of club cycling again.

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.
