Who, Where and When

CTC Inclusive Cycling Directory

CTC's Inclusive Cycling Directory is mapped above. This includes opportunities for riders with disabilities or special needs to take part in cycling both on and off-road either cycle-only hire or as part of a group activity. Some of these are provided by CTC and its partners. There are also a number of other organisations who offer similar opportunities. CTC provides this information in good faith and has not verified the quality of service provided.

How to use the directory

  • Navigate around the map using the direction arrows and zoom controls.
  • Click on a dot to see projects in that area.
  • Select a project from the pop-up list to see the full directory entry.

If you know about a project or facilities which could be included, please contact nigel.williams@ctc.org.uk.

 

Disability Cycling

CTC promotes the use of a wide variety of different cycles and recognises the importance of providing the right training and support to every individual.

CTC Development Officers work with organisations who are keen to set up and support inclusive cycling initiatives.

We've set up the Inclusive Cycle Forum with the aim of promoting cycling to all, and to aid communication between new and existing disabled cyclists.
