    British Cycling ...

    Sums it up for me ...... “ It is a particular cruelty that on what Julian Knight MP, chair of the DCMS committee, describes as a "terrible day for the reputation of British cycling", the achievements of many celebrated British athletes – including multiple Olympic champions – end up being...

    Sofa to 50km (British Cycling) - anyone done it?

    It would seem thatthe various lockdowns have produced some people who have become a lot fitter and some people who have become less fit. I am definitely in the latter camp. Back in the Normal Times, I was pretty much reduced to a cycle commute on the Dahon, split into two parts of about 2 miles...

    CyclingUK, British Cycling. Any special offers?

    I’ve been BC member for a couple of years. It’s just really for the insurance - I’ve never used any of the other facilities. Maybe occasionally the Halfords discount... Anyway - renewal is due shortly, wondering if I should give cyclingUK a try. Cost are similar. Any special offers on the go...

    British Cycling.

    I have just joined it for the following reasons: - 10% off Harfords, Evans and some others. - Third liability insurance. - Free front and back lights as a welcome gift although I don't ride at night but useful in poor visibility in daylight. Are these good enough reasons to join?

    British Cycling Membership, is it worth the £35.10?

    I have aversion to paying for things I don't need/use, so is £35.10 a fair price for British Cycling membership, it seems expensive to me for the benefits. Priority access to tickets I'll not use this Weekly Member Newsletter I'm not interested in this 10% off in Halfords stores nationwide I...

    British Cycling Let's ride and personal information

    Trying to join Let's ride so I can participate in my local social cycling group. I'm concerned about the amount of personal information required in order to make a profile though. They require home and mobile numbers, date of birth, home address and postcode. I tried filling in the form without...

    British Cycling or Cycling UK or doesn't it really matter?

    My Cycling UK membership is up just before I need it for a Fridays run. As The Fridays now accept both as a requirement for their rides is there a compelling reason to choose one over the other? They both have the Halfords discount which is usefull for sundries.......anything else worth considering?

    British Cycling reforms

    BC have voted to accept government proposals to make the sport's governing body more independent and diverse: http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/cycling/40692580 I guess they didn't have a choice if they wanted to keep their funding, but it will be interesting to see if spreading the funds wider has...

    British Cycling or Cycling UK?

    First up apologies if this has already been discussed but I couldn't find a thread on it. I'm thinking of joining one of the above for the insurance mainly. What are the advantages of either? I know BC do a Halfords discount but CU does seem to be getting stuck into issues regarding cyclist...

    SOLD: Genune British Cycling Federation GB Racing Jersey - Medium - £10 posted

    Having bought this last year it's been sat unused. I'm guilty of buying a jersey that I'll never use - aren't we all sometimes :blush: Therefore it is better going to someone who will use it, hang it on a wall or pay more interest than I have ended up doing due to my health issues. The retro...
