This is iCycle
Connecting a cycling community
This is iCycle, a cycling club based in Bedford, United Kingdom, but with links around the World. iCycle is a progressive and exciting cycling club for the internet age, connecting people with a passion for all types of cycling.
Have you ever wondered what it is like being in a cycling club - cycling and competing with other like minded people, cycling somewhere different or just meeting new friends? Improving your fitness and technique, getting faster and going further by being the best you can be? How about experiencing the thrill of competition? At iCycle, cycling is our passion and our mission is to encourage cycling at all levels especially those new to cycling by offering opportunity, help, advice, development and team support.
iCycle has a wide range of members from competitive to social cyclists, old and young, male and female.
iCycle is fully affiliated and its members currently take part in road racing, time trials, sportives, cyclo-cross and mountain biking, with plenty of members who simply ride to keep fit, socialise and enjoy the scenery in a friendly non-competitive environment, with rides and events organised to suit all abilities.
Anyone interested in joining iCycle is welcome to apply to join "The Hub" (the iCycle website) on a 2-week trial basis, and come along and experience one or more of our events before deciding whether you want to become a full member.
To find out more, have a look at the rest of our website - it is The Hub, for a social revolution in a cycling community. Sign-up for a 2-week, no obligation, free trial.
Cycling in the internet age
The central feature of the iCycle is The Hub. This is a Member's Social Forum and communication device where iCycle members can get together and discuss cycling related issues and plan rides and events.
Key Features of iCycle include:
- iCycle Winter fitness training (spinning and weekend rides)
- iCycle Advice on race training and targeted competition
- iCycle Advice on Time Trial training and targeted competition
- iCycle Club Rides (Saturday, Sunday Club rides and midweek rides)
- iCycle Audaxes and Sportives
- iCycle Social Events
The iCycle Hub is a Members' social networking tool with many of the features you would expect to find, similar to facebook.
