Dorset Cyclists' Network represents cyclists with local branches in Bournemouth, Poole, Christchurch, Wimboren, Dorchester, Blandford, Lyme Regis/Bridport, Sherborne, Weymouth & Portland. DCN cooperate with local authorities and the police to get safer and more convenient road conditions for cycling. DCN is affiliated to the CTC, CCN, ETA and Sustrans and sits on various transport forums throughout the County. We encourage people to cycle more for short journeys instead of the car, especially for going to work, school and the shops. We also give free cycle clinics and help those who want to get back to cycling but are nervous about modern conditions.
