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.
Subsidised cycle maintenance courses
If you're interested, please book and pay for the course on a date that suits you. Then email Yasmin, our Treasurer, and she will reimburse you directly. We have enough money to fund 50% off seven places, and it's first come, first served. If you're also a Camcycle member you can get a further 15% discount when you book. If you have any questions, mail Yasmin at treasurer@ctccambridge.org.uk.
