100 Years of Cycling

In 2024, Kingston Wheelers celebrates its 100th anniversary.

Kingston Wheelers was formed in 1924 when six cyclists, including founding member Bill Orpin, met in a cafe on the High Street and the club run was born.

Fast forward to the present day and we are 500-members strong, with a diverse range of rides, events and activities that underpin club life.

In our centenary year we want to celebrate our club heritage, and what it means to be a Wheeler, through a special programme of activities that engage our membership and the local community.

Charity & Community Partners

An important community-run project we are supporting this year, which aims to give people from all backgrounds access to affordable cycling by giving old bikes new life.

We have been working with the charity for hospital staff wellbeing and medical equipment since 2020, and are currently completing a new secure bike storage project together.

Many of our members volunteer at this cycling project for children and adults with disabilities, which uses adapted cycles to assist in building confidence and independence in cycling.
