Welcome to the Spearesextreme website
Speares extreme club is formed in association with the highly successful Speares Rowing Club. As with the Rowing Club we enter events to have a good time, while still being competitive! Dull, boring and slog are not words associated with our membership of adrenaline enthusiasts!
Regular events range from charity bike rides to more energetic rides such as cycling from London to Paris; hot air ballooning to paragliding; coastal paddles to kite surfing; from a gentle jog to 3-day endurance marathons; and, that's just for starters...
The social calendar is equally as challenging with weekly “thirsty Thursday” pub sessions and an annual black tie ball that tops 200 guests!
