Bob on his bike

Late afternoon sun – if you have a picture from one of your rides that you'd like to share, please email it and we'll post it here


Welcome

CTC  North Hampshire is divided into three groups:
• Alton
• Fleet
• Farnborough

Regular rides start from Petersfield too and there is also an active off-road element with organised rides in and beyond the district.

We organise rides and other events to suit all abilities of cyclist, both on and off road. Visitors and non-members are welcome –
it costs nothing to join the majority of our rides but regular riders are expected to be members of the CTC.

You can join the CTC online.

For further information about CTC North Hampshire please contact Andrew Heaton.


Buying online from Wiggle

The 'Wiggle' link in the navigation bar to the left will take you to Wiggle's online shop. Not only will you find a large range of products at competitive prices, but each purchase made by going from this link earns the CTC North Hampshire group a small amount of commission... which all adds up (around £100 so far).

Publicity

To publicise CTC North Hampshire and our events, we have produced a couple of posters to be used locally. There is a general information poster and a blank that can be added to, either on a PC and printed, or by hand after printing.

General Information

Blank

As we are a group spread across North Hampshire it is often difficult to get to hear about local matters affecting us as cyclists. So if you've some news in your area that might be of interest to others further afield, please pass details on and we'll put it up on this site. email

BBQ

Those that were away, or didn't brave the gathering clouds, missed out on a great BBQ. The rain held off and though the sun was often shielded by heavy cloud it was still pleasant enough to enjoy some good food and company in the delightful setting at Newton Valence. Thanks to all those who helped make it once again, an enjoyable afternoon.

CTC's new campaign, is now live and collecting cyclists stories of bad driving.

Recycle your bike
CTC’s Cycle Champions Officer in Reading, Helen Biggerstaff, is collecting unwanted bicycles. So far employees from Pepsico UK Ltd have donated a few bikes, but Helen and her team of volunteers are looking for more. The bikes that are donated will be given to Reading Borough Council’s Youth Engagement Service and used during bike maintenance courses. If you live nearby and have a spare bike, please contact Helen Biggerstaff.
