What we’re about
Welcome to Brussels Unchained: The Brussels Peloton. Discover more about our community at https://brusselsunchained.cc
We meet up for cycle tours around Brussels. We're an inclusive group that's all about road cycling, sharing our love of sporty rides on our racing bikes, and wearing lycra-clad cycling clothes. In our rides you'll meet women and men cyclists alike, and you'll hear all sorts of languages spoken.
This group is for cyclists capable of maintaining a pace ranging from 24 km/h to 30 km/h. We also have special affinity groups for newcomers to road cycling, amateur race enthusiasts, and gravel cyclists too. Our rides are not appropriate for individuals on city, trekking, or mountain bikes.
Our ride captains support those struggling to keep pace. Every group ride features a new route for you to explore our surroundings. We provide GPX tracks via our WhatsApp groups and on our website ahead of rides.
Our rides are no-drop rides (but we expect you to be able to generally keep to the announced pace). Typically, the ride rules mean you can unleash all your power on the route's climbs, but we wait at the top of them for those lagging or upon our ride captains' instructions. Our Ride Captain ensure you never ride alone.
Interested in joining? Want to know more? Come and join our newcomers' lobby and we'll get you connected to all our WhatsApp community of 350+ cyclists in Brussels: https://chat.whatsapp.com/H22nOPFV2RuCSp0P1se6uP

Announcing TGIF Friday S25E06 - Civilised, Not Wielerterrorists
⚠ Earlier Departure from Woodpecker at Bois de la Cambre ⚠The Bois de la Cambre and the policies to manage our presence on it has been at the centre of media attention. But what about all the rule-abiding pelotons like us?!
So as a nod (or other colourful metaphors as Spock would say) to our politicians who aren't able to form governments anymore, we're setting off from Bois de La Cambre for once! We're going as far as La Hulpe before turning back to head towards a finish at Gare Maritime where hopefully there'll still be New York-style pizzas waiting for us!
A longer than usual route which is why we're setting off a little earlier than normal. If we're going to change one thing, might as well change everything right?
Are you in for our chill chill TGIF Friday ride?
