Strava Segment Challenge
As part of our expanded online coverage we are launching some Strava Segment Challenges for users of that platform.
The idea being that you can ride the segment at your leisure and a leaderboard is posted to let you know where you are positioned.
The first one we are sharing, and just in time for spring classics season, is Gains Lane in Great Gidding. This road is a little know gem of a back road back up from the Hemington Road to the Windmill. Whilst less than half a mile long, it features a short 20% gradient which will get you out of the saddle.

Sport England Funding Award
We are proud to announce that Sport England have awarded the club funds to promote cycling in SEVEN local secondary schools through indoor cycling with Wattbikes. This is primarily aimed at encouraging youngsters who have shown little interest in being active to participate in an indoor cycling competition within their school and then go on to represent their school in an inter schools competition. Hopefully some of these will become more interested in cycling in general, and may choose to take part in future cycling events. Also we will be hosting an inter company competition as a team event where teams will be encouraged to include at least one rider aged under 25, so if you are aware of local firms who might be interested in entering a team please let us know. If you are interested in this project or have any questions about it please contact us by clicking on the picture below.
