Rides in January and February

The January and February rides lists are now available. Yes, it's those drab winter months with a risk of bad weather and icy roads. So we've planned shorter rides and moved the Sunday tea stops closer to Cambridge. But all the routes can be extended if we get some nice clear winter days.

There are a few highspots coming up on the Sunday rides with two new lunch stops in February and a total of three home teas. The first home tea is at John F's at the end of January, and this is followed by home teas at Conrad's and at Julia's in February. Hopefully this will tempt most of you out - even if it does rain.

Meanwhile the Thursday rides carry on as usual. And there's a smattering of Saturday and Wednesday evening full-moon rides to round out the programme. So plenty of good opportunities to use those new lights you were given for Christmas...

CTC Cambridge in the 1930s

A selection of photos taken in the 1930's by club member Donnex Claydon have now been published on this website. They show how active the club was in the 1930s, and what fun its members had.

19 Jan: Thursday ride to Toft and Gamlingay
