Welcome to the Nova Scotia Ramblers Bicycle Club website! The Ramblers strive to be a very social, relaxed paced bicycle club; one that appreciates the exercise aspect, without the competitive stress in having to maintain pace lines. The distances are generally moderate, suitable for new cyclists as well as folks re-entering cycling after a period of absence. We look for scenic trails that are suitable for cycling as well as quiet back roads in beautiful rural settings. We tend not to ride in rain, as the trails can get soupy. And of course, we seldom pass a good café, chocolate outlet, winery..... you get the picture.

    The Ramblers has been designed to be an adult club, as the trail rides, day tours and multi day camping events are centred on adult activities. Membership is open to all residents of Canada. The fee set for 2010 is $30, which includes the $25 membership in Bicycle Nova Scotia (BNS) as well as the Canadian Cycling Association (CCA). Included in this fee is ride / tour / event liability insurance – full details are on the BNS website. If you hold a BNS membership, then the fee is only $5.

    We welcome newcomers, who may “test ride” us for one trail or day ride (only); although waivers / applications need to be signed to ride with the Ramblers. We have many seasoned cyclists willing to share their knowledge on all aspects of cycling, camping and the like. Be sure to read "Your First Ride".
