We are Glasgow Tandem Club

A friendly group of vision impaired and sighted cyclists.

Who we are

Glasgow Tandem club was formed in 2018, with an aim to bring together vision impaired and sighted cyclists for social rides together.

Group rides are every second and fourth Saturday of the month, starting from either the club base in Glasgow or a local railway station.

Check out all of our latest news on our blog!

We are always looking for enthusiastic, experienced cyclists to become tandem pilots (front riders) .

We are also keen to reach out to vision impaired people who want to try cycling.

If you or someone you know is keen to get involved, we want to hear from you!
