they were always more concerned with standing around outside Trinity college looking cool than actually doing any riding, and when they did ride it was always short and somewhat null of any emotion but as I said it was 5-6 yrs ago so all those kids have moved on.
I remember Didcot has a pretty good club too called the Didcot Phoenix Cycling club (http://www.didcotphoenix.co.uk ) and there's always The Oxford City Road Club (I think Steve rides with them among others) ( http://www.ocrc.co.uk/ ). If Steve's too busy working downstairs have a chat with a guy called Neil he's pretty knowledgeable with events going around Oxford aswell and also can dish out some great discounts on stuff in stock. If your riding north or east of Oxford you might bump into an older guy around 45-50 with a bandana called Ashley, he's always alone and puts in at least 200 miles a week, he's a quiet fellow but loves to talk bikes.
If your after a younger more hip, alleycat/fixed kinda feel, chat with a guy called Dan at OCW on the Cowley Road. And for mountain bike trails advice, Jason at Beeline on the Cowley Road is a cool guy to know in the city.
