The Genesis of CW.CC: A New Chapter for Cycling Enthusiasts

Since its inception in 1891, Cycling Weekly has inspired countless individuals to embrace the joy of cycling. Now, for the first time, we're introducing CW.CC, a complimentary membership platform tailored for our most dedicated readers. This initiative marks a significant evolution, transforming our long-standing publication into a vibrant, interactive community. By signing up, members gain immediate entry to a dedicated section of our website, brimming with premium features and in-depth analyses. The future holds even more promise, with plans for exclusive training regimens and specialized bike fitting consultations from our expert, Phil Burt. Beyond content, the membership fosters dynamic discussions, allowing members to share their perspectives, engage with our seasoned journalists, and even inspire future editorial themes.

Beyond the Pages: Fostering a Dynamic Cycling Community

The essence of a great cycling club lies in its members' camaraderie and shared experiences, and CW.CC is no different. Our vision extends beyond written articles; we aim to cultivate a thriving community where connections flourish. Each month, we will spotlight the achievements of our members, beginning with those participating in the Big Ride Challenge. Our well-established Strava club, already a bustling hub with over 12,000 members, serves as an excellent platform for mutual encouragement and lively conversations about cycling exploits. For those eager to visibly express their allegiance, our heritage clothing line offers a range of merchandise, with new jerseys and bibs soon to be added, allowing members to proudly represent their club. The best part? Membership is entirely free; simply register with your email address to embark on this exciting journey.

Exclusive Advantages: Unveiling Your Member Benefits

Becoming a CW.CC member unlocks a suite of exclusive advantages designed to enrich your cycling experience. The primary draw is unfettered access to premium content, including unique features often accompanied by embedded video overviews. This includes the insightful Dr. Hutch columns, expert perspectives from our Undercover Mechanic, and the 'Ask a Cycling Coach' series penned by our coaching partner, Andy Turner. A highly anticipated addition is the monthly bike fit clinic, led by Phil Burt, former head physiotherapist for British Cycling. These resources provide unparalleled insights and guidance for cyclists of all levels.

Engage and Connect: Your Voice in the Cycling Discourse

Membership empowers you to actively participate in the vibrant discussions surrounding our articles. With a community of over 10,000 members, you can readily contribute comments, exchange ideas, and debate the latest news with our team of journalists. This interactive platform allows for a rich exchange of knowledge and opinions. If you have questions for us, simply post them in the comments section; we are always eager to engage in conversations about bikes and the cycling world.

Riding Together: Monthly Challenges and Strava Engagement

Embrace the spirit of collective endeavor by joining our monthly "Big Ride Challenge." Participants are set various trials each month, culminating in a medal for every finisher, regardless of whether they complete 500 or an impressive 5,000 miles. We will feature one challenge rider monthly, offering an exclusive interview and a glimpse into their training routines, aspirations, and chosen equipment. Additionally, our thriving Strava club provides a dynamic environment to share your rides, track your weekly mileage, and even vie for a coveted top-ten position on the leaderboards, fostering a sense of friendly competition and shared accomplishment.

Style on and off the Bike: Official CW.CC Merchandise

For those who wish to showcase their affiliation with CW.CC, our official merchandise line offers a stylish way to do so. A comprehensive range of products, including t-shirts, mugs, and prints, is currently available for purchase. These items allow you to demonstrate your support for the club and integrate your passion for cycling into your everyday wardrobe. Keep an eye out for upcoming additions, including high-performance jerseys and bibs, enabling you to literally look the part both on and off the bike.

Guiding the Club: Meet the Editorial Leadership

Every successful club thrives on dedicated leadership, and CW.CC is no exception. Our club is spearheaded by the editorial managers, Simon Richardson and Michelle Arthurs-Brennan, who bring a wealth of experience and passion to the helm. While the annual time trial manager is yet to be determined (our weekly 10-mile TT is still a fixture!), and the next Saturday ride leader remains a mystery, rest assured that the club is guided by enthusiastic individuals committed to fostering a dynamic and engaging environment for all members.
