“I had never ridden in a group of cyclists before I joined the Mavs and didn’t know what to expect. From the very first ride I was made to feel welcome. Everyone made such an effort to talk to me. Since then I’ve made so many wonderful friends. The chat, banter and fun make this Club very special indeed”.

“This is undoubtedly the most welcoming sports club I have encountered in a lifetime spent immersed in such groups! There are simply three words to describe the group that are the Cheshire Mavs and Mavettes – encouraging, inclusive and fun!”.

“I was nervous when I came to the Mavs having known other cycling Clubs that drop women on rides but they couldn’t have been nicer. I’ve been to places and up hills I’d never done without them, Mavs and Mavettes are equally wonderful people”.
