About Us

Plymouth Corinthian CC is a friendly club with 127 years of history. It’s tradition is in competitive racing but that doesn’t mean that everyone in the club races, far from it. We are a multi-discipline inclusive club. Some riders just like being part of a club to meet like minded people and enjoy a social ride or sportive together often including a nice cafe stop too!

Club Rides

There are a range of social and training rides throughout the year to meet all abilities and objectives:

Sunday Club Run: If you want to dip your toe with a club ride then we ride every Sunday at 8:30am from the entrance to the Plymouth Gateway Retail Park (Marsh Mills Costa), click here for more details. You can expect 3 led rides to leave each week (Base, Tempo & Pace). https://www.plymouthcorinthiancc.co.uk/sunday-road-club-runs
