What we’re about
Welcome to our Singles Cycling Group! 🚴♂️❤️
Looking for a fun way to meet new people while staying active? You’ve come to the right place! This group is for cyclists with a good fitness level who want to connect with other singles and share the joy of cycling.
We’ll kick things off at Richmond Park, where we’ll tackle a circuit or two (at a nice medium/steady pace), stop for coffee at one of the cafes, and make some new friends along the way. No one gets left behind—unless you decide to sprint ahead, in which case, we’ll see you at the café! 😉
Why Join?
Let’s face it: dating apps are exhausting, speed dating is awkward, and good vibes are better found in fresh air than on a glowing screen. Whether you’re here to make friends, spark a romance, or just enjoy the ride, this group is all about fun, fitness, and connection.
Oh, and a quick tip—Meetup has a Connections feature. If you meet someone you fancy, you can connect within 24 hours if it’s mutual. So, channel your inner Cavendish and make your move before the clock runs out! 🕒
A Bit About Me:
Hi, I’m Van! I’m 49, single, and living in Tooting with my four bikes (yes, they all have names). I’m the proud owner of London’s highest-rated mobile bike mechanic service, Fixed on Bikes (300+ 5-star Google reviews—humblebrag, I know).
Cycling is my passion, my business, and my therapy. I’ve clocked over 300 laps around Richmond Park and taken on a few sportives this year. If you ever want tips on routes or want to join a bigger adventure, just ask. I’m hoping to organize longer rides to Surrey Hills or Brighton once the weather warms up.
Follow me on Strava (Van Swan) or check out my Instagram at @fixedonbikes for cycling content and maybe a selfie or two.
Why This Group Exists:
Honestly? Because I got tired of waiting for something like this to happen. So, here we are! Let’s build this group into something amazing together—whether that’s making friends, finding a partner, or just having a laugh over coffee and bikes.
If this takes off, I’ll keep it running year-round—yes, even through winter (as long as it’s not snowing). Who’s in?
Thanks for joining, and let’s pedal our way to new adventures, friendships, and maybe something more! 🚴♀️🚴♂️💫
Cheers,
Van
