Partner of the Year
Our friends at Camcycle have awarded us the honour of being their Partner of the Year. We were presented with a lovely trophy at their AGM on 25 January.
Camcycle is a cycle advocacy charity for the Cambridge area. In her announcement of the award, Anna Williams from Camcycle said:
"with our next award, Partner of the Year, we like to honour the organisations and groups that really amplify and strengthen our work and this year there could be only one winner: CTC Cambridge. They have reviewed our strategy for us, hosted social rides, shared our campaigns and marked thousands of bikes with the police to keep them safe from theft. CTC Cambridge are part of Cycling UK and we couldn't be luckier to have such a vibrant and active group in our region."
The trophy was presented to our chair David Secher:
Audax: Join the discussion

As part of the club tea celebrations in September, four club members successfully rounded up the 100-mile ride to 200 km (125 miles) to gain two Audax UK points. If you'd like to take part in similar challenges or just want to know more about Audax, the discussion group is the place to go. Find out more on the CTC Cambridge Audax page.
