Time trials
We are affiliated to the (Road) Time Trials Council which allows our members to ride events on public roads under their regulations and insurance.
From March to October we run regular (mainly weekday evening) Club time trials on local courses. The most popular distance is 10 miles which is an excellent introduction for a beginner to racing or for regular racers to hone their speed. For longer distances and faster competition our racing members compete in Open Events both locally and around the country up to National Championship level. The Club promotes our own Open Time Trial events at distances of 10 and 30 miles.

Road (massed start) and track racing
We are affiliated to British Cycling (Federation) which, together with an individual membership, allows our members to compete in bunch start racing on public roads and also on closed track events. We are fortunate in being close to Welwyn track which many of our racing members use. The Club promotes our own Road Race in September over a distance of about 60 miles.
Our Club is also affiliated to several local time trial and road race organisations covering Hertfordshire, Essex and North London. This gives our members priority entry to their events and the ability to compete for their trophies.
