As well as regular weekend group rides throughout the year, NCCC organises further special annual cycling events, including the Reliability Ride, Grand Tour Sundays, and of course our Annual Dinner.
The Richard Milner Annual Reliability ride
Our annual reliability ride takes place early in the season and is a good indication of how all those winter miles have paid off. Now carrying the name of our much missed Ride Captain Richie Milner, the ride has two routes to suit all abilities: a traditional 50 miles and 30 miles.
Entry will be Β£5 on the day including a donation to West Midlands Air Ambulance
Sign on commences at 08.00, Cotswold Cycles, 3 Cotswold Link, Moreton-in-Marsh, GL56 0JU
Groups are expected toΒ cover a range of abilities, all setting off at 09:00
Please note the routes will not be signed, so it is your responsibility (as a group) to navigate.

Grand Tour Sundays
Our Grand Tour Sundays are already legendary after their first year! As a club we celebrate the three Grand tours of the year by choosing one Sunday during each of the races The Giro, The Tour and the Vuelta. On the chosen Sunday the club returns to Cotswold cycles to immerse ourselves in the food and culture of the country in question! The events bring out many of our club members and with the added bonus of a King of the mountains competition within each group it makes for a very enjoyable day for members and their families. Dates will be announced nearer the time.
Annual Dinner
The Annual diner is held in January and is open to all members. The date differs, but we meet on a Saturday in January to have drinks and dinner, review the year that has gone, and celebrate the best of the club by awarding trophies. The Club currently awards four trophies:
- Crash of the Year
- Club person of the Year
- Womenβs Trophy
- Richard Milner memorial Cup
The dates and details will be published nearer the time.
