Clubs & Groups
Tandem Club
The Beech Holme Tandem Club is based at HERIB, Beverley Road, Hull and was formed in about 1952 by a group of cyclists from the Cyclists Touring Club so that blind back riders could enjoy the pleasures of cycling through the countryside with sighted front riders.
The club has an excellent “fleet” of modern, well maintained tandems donated by private individuals and/or funded by local organisations.
