About our club
The Lyme Racing Club, is the largest cycling club in the North Staffordshire, South Chesire area and as such we pride ourselves upon being a friendly and welcoming family orientated club. Time trials, track racing, road racing and mountain bike racing are just some of the competitive cycling activities that we regularly take part in and can offer to the new member.
Lyme RC has Coaching for all ages from very young to OAPs, with Level 1 Coaches, Level 2 coaches also qualified Level 2 MTB, Level 2 Road/TT, Level 2 Track coaches in Track and Road/TT giving Lyme RC some of the best coaches in the country. The coaching takes place both on Newcastle Velodrome and other places in the North Staffordshire area. In addition we now have 2 qualified Roller Trainers.
However, don’t think that we only concentrate upon cycle racing. Membership of the Lyme Racing Club offers equally good value to both the serious rider and to the more recreational rider.
To facilitate this, we hold weekly club rides, usually on Sunday morning, we also have Tuesday morning, Thursday night and Saturday morning riders for less experienced riders, one for our road section and another for our mountain bike section.
Our younger members are not forgotten either, with specially tailored rides designed especially for children, taking place at regular intervals.
These rides can either be road rides or mountain bike rides and are led by our members who hold a current DBS certificate in line with the British Cycling Go-Ride scheme.
In addition we also have a lively and active social side to the club.During the summer we are coaching down at Newcastle Velodrome on Friday night from 6.30pm if you want to come down for a chat.
From September to April we are at St Mary's C of E School Ladywell Rd, Stoke-on-Trent ST6 5DE
from 6.30pm for Roller Racing and turbo training, you are welcome to come down for a chat and a cup of tea.
