Update from CTT
Good News
We have finally confirmed the 2021 open event programme for time trials on Teesside.
The updated programme is in the latest edition (amendment 4) of the 2021 Teesside District Cycling Time Trials Open Events & Competition Booklet.
The changes are :-
- We have an additional hill climb on Sunday 12th September 2021, to be organized by AIMS Cycling. This is the first event to be organized by this local sponsored club. More exciting, is that they have chosen to resurrect the previous Teesside Cycling Association Championship Hill, Kildale hill. This was used for decades, quite often the only hill climb in the district, and was last used circa late eighties. The climb takes you from just north of Kildale village up towards Gribdale Moor. The district’s thanks go to AIMS Cycling for stepping forward with this new event. With the addition of this new hill climb, Teesside now boasts 6 hill climbs in the district in 2021, something I do not think has been experienced before. Please support these events by either riding them (and qualifying for the Teesside District hill climb championship) or if restrictions permit, give the riders some support and encouragement.
- The VTTA (North) 15mile time trial scheduled for 12th September 2021 has been cancelled.
All event details have been updated on the Cycling Time Trials website.
It is hoped, if the current roadmap to the relaxing of Covid-19 restrictions go ahead as planned, there will not be too many difficulties experienced in the organizing of the programme of events. The only area of concern is whether village halls will be made available for use as headquarters, something recently experienced by the organizer of the forthcoming Stockton Wheelers SPOCO event & inaugural District Road Bike Championship.
On a positive note, lets all look forward to a full season of events and hopefully some better weather
Kindest Regards & Please Keep Safe

Teesside District Secretary

Hello everyone,
Firstly, I hope that everyone is safe and doing well.
I last contacted you at the end of January 2021 to inform you all that our usual restart date of the first week of February would be postponed. Thank you for being patient with me during this time. In light of recent announcements, and after having several discussions and meetings with British Cycling and Everyone Active, I can now confirm that myself and the coaching team aim to restart our youth coaching sessions after the Easter holidays.
***** Cleveland Wheelers CC Youth Coaching will restart on Monday 12th April 2021, 6 – 7pm! *****
During this time, there are a number of things that I need to share with you all regarding the use of both cycling facilities at MSV. There have been several changes that will affect, A) us as a club delivering the sessions and B) you as a parent/youth/rider attending your club’s sessions. Please familiarize yourself with the key points below before you attend any of our sessions.
With the loosening of lockdown restrictions beginning on Monday 29th March, we’re excited to announce the return of our regular Tuesday evening, and weekend club runs.
To begin with, the club is recommending a return to the ‘Rule of 6’ which we operated with some success between lockdowns last year. As restrictions continue to be relaxed, group sizes can be increased accordingly. Bear in mind that social distancing remains in place along with other public safety requirements, in particular in the car park prior to departure.
In order to facilitate this, we will need additional ride leaders to step forward and post proposed routes to the FB page. If groups and routes can be planned in advance this will allow for a smoother rollout from the car park on the day.
Look forward to seeing you all again!
Please see the following link from BC for important updates regarding a return to club activities. In a nutshell, officially sanctioned club runs should be able to resume from March 29th. As always this is subject to alteration/cancellation if circumstances dictate, but we can all hope for the best. Right on time for the clocks going forward too.
Youth training should also be able to resume from that date and organised competition just a little later.
