Whilst London Dynamo has always been primarily a road cycling club, a number of our members also venture off-road and enjoy racing cyclo-cross. There are plenty of members who go on weekly, longer gravel rides, as well as sightly shorter, more technically focused cyclo-cross rides and participate in competitive CX racing.
Although cyclo-cross can seem a hard sell, what with the mud, the constant high tempo and the getting off and running with your bike, it is a perhaps surprisingly friendly and inclusive form of bike racing:
Although the majority of cyclo-cross racing happens during the winter months, there are also a number of summer cross races.
There are several leagues around the country, however the ones closest to London.
The experience and ability in these races vary considerably so why not come along and give cyclo-cross a go at a league race? There is no need to do every race, you can dip in and out as you see fit.
For a slightly more challenging course and a higher tempo, there are Regional Championships, the National Championships, and the National Trophy League.
If you are interested in CX racing do not hesitate to get in touch.
London Dynamo is a British Cycling affiliated cycling club.
