Other Cycling Stuff

Food Cycle

Get on your bike, prevent food waste and help out a great community project. Volunteers needed Saturdays 9-10pm and Sunday mornings (cycling or cooking).

New Pedals?

How to unclip like a pro with GCN.

BMX Supercross World Cup 2014

The BMX Supercross World Cup comes to Manchester in April. Check out the teaser video.

Weekly Roundup

We're getting close to the end of term. Deadlines are looming, but there's plenty going on to distract you. Check out the latest trip announcements (some deadlines very soon), and more info about the Open TT.

Curry Night

To round off the term, we thought it would be nice to have a curry night on the last Wednesday of term (2nd April).

Venue: Garam Massala, Cotham Hill.

Date: 2nd April @ 7pm

Please RSVP to the facebook event by Friday 28th March so we can book a table. It'll be between £7-12/pp depending on what you eat (we're checking to see if we can get a group deal) and it's BYOB.

Exmoor Day Trip - Road - 5th April

On Saturday 5th April we're heading to Exmoor to wrap up a brilliant term and work on those tan-lines.

Sign-up now open. Only £7 to cover van hire and fuel, it's a bargain. Only 18 spaces available, so sign-up quick to avoid disappointment. When you're signed up, please head to this link to fill out emergency contact details. 

BUCS Track 10-11th May

BUCS Track Championships have been announced, and will be held in Manchester this year. If you have been to a couple of sessions on the track this could be for you.

Georgie has put together loads ofinfo on the website so check it out.

To register your interest in taking part, please send Georgie a message with what events you may be interested in.

Alps Trip - 14th-21st June 2014

You've probably heard about this already, now we really need to confirm numbers so we can book accommodation.

The cost will be somewhere between £230-300 for accommodation, food and travel.

Please comment on this facebook post if you would like to come. At the end of this week we will book accommodation only for those who have commented.

Open TT Information

Next Saturday (29th) is the UOBCC Open TT. All competitors should have already received the start sheet by email (also available here). You should aim to be at the HQ at least 40mins before your start time, to sign on and collect your number.

It's fairly simple to cycle to, however you might be able to get a lift with someone driving up. See this facebook post to organise a lift.

Bristol BMX Track Session

We are off to ride the Bristol BMX track on Tuesday 1st April. This is an entirely casual ride for both experienced riders and beginners (even roadies) to have a go at riding the local BMX track. Some casual racing might break out if people are up for it. All the jumps are a good size (but way smaller than the Olympic tracks!) but you can easily roll over all of them and it is a great place to get used to pumping and jumping over a variety of jumps. Any Mountain bike will be fine, flat pedals recommended. We will meet at 5pm at the water tower on the downs and ride up to the track. We should be back before dark but lights would be a good idea. Helmets mandatory and knee pads and gloves are recommended. More info here.

Rides This Week

Wednesday - Meet at the Clifton Suspension Bridge at 2pm. Road and XC split into different ability groups and head out to explore the countryside.

Sunday - Much the same, meet at 10am at the bridge for road and XC rides.
