Warming up the engine…
Long-distance riders chasing the far horizon.

The Far Meridian Society is a club for long-distance and overland riders - the kind who plan a route around a library, a mountain range and a good cup of coffee in equal measure.
We ride far, read widely, and believe the best stories are earned a tank at a time. Adventure is a discipline, not a costume.

Sun, Jul 12, 8:00 AM · Meet at the old mill car park
A full day on the high passes. Bring layers, spare cables and lunch. We regroup at every junction and nobody rides alone.
Sun, Jul 19, 9:00 AM · The Society lock-up
Pre-expedition maintenance day. Chains, brakes, luggage racks. Tea provided, knowledge shared, no question too daft.
Sun, Aug 2, 6:00 PM · The reading room (and online)
We map the autumn expedition: borders, fuel ranges, the good libraries and the better coffee. Bring an atlas.
No shared routes yet.
Nothing in the library yet.
New patch dropped for anyone who forded the river last month. Wear it with mud still on your boots.
Reminder: the Society rides to see the world, not to be seen. Leave a place better than you found it.
Route notes for the autumn ridgeline run are in the works - bring spare cables and a sense of humour.
Welcome to the Far Meridian Society. Slow miles, long horizons, and we always wait for the last rider at the top of the pass.
Ride your own ride. We wait at the top of the pass, never leave a rider stranded, and the slowest rider sets the pace.
Leave no trace. Respect the land, the locals and the route for those who come after us.
No gatekeeping. Any bike, any budget, any background - curiosity is the only entry requirement.
