Newbury Velo Quest - Discover Your Community Through Cycling Quests.

What Makes Cycling Quests Special?

Exploring Your Local Area Through Our Cycling Quests

The concept of the Velo Quest emerged during the coronavirus pandemic in 2020. Though our club was just a few months old, the lockdown prevented group rides. With exercise on bikes still permitted, we created several quests that allowed members to ride routes independently and share photographs on our social media pages. These Quests became fundamental in building our club spirit and sense of community. We celebrated participation by awarding prizes for the best photographs, gradually getting to know one another despite physical separation.

Each quest in our library features a unique local theme, guiding riders along various distances and routes that begin and end in the Newbury area. These carefully crafted journeys reveal hidden historical landmarks, scenic natural viewpoints, architectural treasures, and cultural sites you might otherwise miss. By following our quest routes, you'll discover fascinating stories behind familiar places, learn about local heritage, and see your community from entirely new perspectives.

Our quest library offers options for every rider—whether you're looking for a quick exploration or a full-day adventure. Each route comes with points of interest, historical context, and photo opportunities that transform an ordinary ride into a journey of discovery. Many members report finding remarkable places they'd driven past for years without noticing!

Join our community of explorers by selecting a quest from our regularly updated collection. Share your discoveries and photos on our social media pages to connect with fellow adventurers.
