Joining CLOG

We are a friendly hiking, cycling, walking and other outdoor activity club for people based in or near Greater London.

The club is run by its members for its members.  Most are over 35s (typically mid 30s to 60s) but all ages (over 18) welcome.  Not a family group, so we can't take children on our activities.

CLOG is strictly non-commercial.  Ready to join?   Go to:  https://membermojo.co.uk/clog or just hit the orange button above.

What sort of cycling we do

We have easy cycle rides using trains from London to explore unusual places you never knew were there, rather than cycling in chain gangs or rushing through as much tarmac as possible.  

Together we explore lost railways, cycle ferries, old forts, castles, marshes, canals, ancient churches, winding rivers and wide skies, ancient woods, village greens, old pubs, martello towers, windmills, follies, sea marks, sailing barges, light ships, gun emplacements and more.

Highlights of a few upcoming events

Among the many outdoor events next month...

Martello Towers and 12th century Abbey Cycle Ride 23 miles 

We cycle out of Great Bentley south to St Osyths where we stop to look at what remains of the great abbey of St Osyths, then further south to the coast at Seawick where we may stop for coffee.  We then follow Cycle Route 150 through Clacton and Frinton to Walton on the Naze where we pass 5 Martello Towers. When we get to Walton we will explore the Naze nature reserve and admire the fantastic views and the old sea mark tower.

Lost Sussex railways cycle ride: Three Bridges to Tunbridge Wells 23 miles

We cycle out of Three Bridges along the Worth Way to East Grinstead  then along Forest Way which is within the High Weald AONB  to Groombridge. Both cycle paths follow the lost railway that once ran between Crawley and Tunbridge Wells. Then we are on minor roads (NCR 18) to Tunbridge Wells.

Canterbury Bridges. A walk round Canterbury crossing over 30 bridges and looking at islands and watermills. About 6 miles circular

Pill Box Safari. A walk tracing the history of wartime pill boxes along the River Medway before exploring the scenic countryside round Hildenborough. About 12 miles circular from Tonbridge

Isle of Harty  A walk exploring the remote Isle of Harty. About 10 miles circular from Leysdown-on-Sea

Stairway to Heaven. A walk round Haysden Country Park, Barden Lake, the Bidborough Ridge, the Straight Mile and Haysden Water reservoir. About 11 miles figure-of-8 from Leigh

Multi-day Trips Away in the UK and abroad

As well as day walks, cycle rides and social events, we usually have around 20 or more outdoor adventure multi-day trips away each year - walking, cycling, city breaks, kayaking, paddleboarding, both in the UK and abroad.

CLOG multi-day trips are non-commercial and are run at cost or occasionally subsidised. CLOG is a club run for and by members.
